Have you been impressed by the UK during the Olympics?

Posted at: 2015-05-07 
Hi, Could you please tell me what you think about how the UK have done in the olympics

Could you please say where you are from

Thanks!

*We have TWICE the Gold Medals that Russia have thank you.

I am a Brit and it has far exceeded my prophecies of gloom and doom LOL

*KIRKUK friction burns?

10 grand just went the way of the wind sorry

I'm amazed, and not the least bit relieved after all the hype. Yes, there have been areas where we've not lived up to expectations but again, we have done better than expected in other areas - Equestrian for one!!

I'm in the UK (naturally!).

Small population? Cough! This is a small country for sure, but we are FULL UP, to the rafters!!

Yes, but not surprised, since the host country always does very well in the Olympics.

It is common for the host country to win more than their normal number of medals.

London, England.

It has been so good, the delegation sent from Rio de Janiero to observe us have said "we are concerned about putting on a show to match the quality of London2012". The bar has been raised so high, countries are afraid to bid for 2024. The UK is justly proud. I guess you too are British. You are too polite to be anything else.

Yes. London and the UK have done a great job!

Hurrah to our British cousins!

Down with Mitt the Twit for trying to jinx the Games by doubting the security arrangements.

I'm from the US.

Yes I am ecstatic that they have done well. To be pretty much even with Russia near the end of the games is quite a feat considering the populations of each country.

TEXAS, United States.

Compare with Beijing. Pretty amazing improvement... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_Summer...

Edit: Well of course I like the country, I am a hardcore EPL fan and admire the culture there.

There have been a few mis-steps here and there, but nothing earth-shattering. You've done at least as well as we did here in the USA when we've hosted the games. I lifts me glass to ya, cousins. Slante!

I'm from India. We're more interested in how our athletes are doing. About the GBR team, they trained well, they're reaping the rewards.

incredible performance...just hope they don't win over 24 golds that's all....its so damn close...with lots of potential winners left to scupper my chances of that £10,000 bet....if they obtain 25 ..i will be spitting feathers...lol..

friction burns down below....

the sports people expected them to win in eg swimming diving they did nt win but they didn t expect them to win in the triatalong gymnastics or cycling so i think they have done pretty amazing
