Oh I didn't know that Eldrick.Do the same rules apply for rifle and pidgeon shoot as well. Just doesn't seem right at all, giving some countries an unfair advantage! :-|

I've always loved watching the Olympics Hayley but think having it staged in London, with the fabulous venues,probably gives it an edge this time around.

:-( Helen Jenkins came in fifth but what a grueling race...all winners in my eyes.

Jessica Ennis next ........no beep beep h*******k today that's for sure :-D

I cant believe how interested I have got in the games this time round, watched Victoria cycle for gold last night and cheered when she won, watched the swimming watched our Jessica but I also watched the 100000 miles run even though our girls wasnt placed what a race, :-D

No, pistol shooting is totally banned. No clubs, nothing. Our teams have to go abroad to train, at their own expense.

Some sports are more equal than others. Yet we have allowed foreign comptitors to take part in a sport our own countrymen are denied.

Don't know much about pistol shooting Bob,but do they not have clubs to train in?

Exciting day today lots of medal to be won.
With chances for gold for Mo Farah... the men's coxless four.... triathlete Helen Jenkins and Jessica Ennis hoping to complete the Hepthathlon with a win.

Watching the Triathlon at the moment.

Go GB!! :-D

Peter Wilson won the skeet...........shotgun clay pigeon.
but sadly so far,no UK shooter did well in any other shooting event!
possibly thanks to our governments' ban on pistol shooting.

More GOLD AND SILVER AND BRONZE...BRILLIANT:)
