and 3 of the 5 are golds. no change

athletics is the one where we might be said to be underperforming, but incremental gains tough to find v other competitiors in that sport.

you either have the natural speed/endurance/strength etc or you don't so for gemili, doyle, muir etc to improve leaps and bounds is tough

we are likely to make the 7 medals in the athletics though with MO and the relays

USA swimmer and party animal Ryan Lochte lied about gunpoint robbery, claim Rio police http://dailym.ai/2b7ADrx

in fact you could argue that hid did his mum up like a kipper: Lochte, stock and two smoking barrels

Very good, what a Guy you are, Ritchie.
