How Terrific is Great Britain?

Thankyouuu?

Thats such a complement from an American considering how many medals you have!!:)

We are coming 3rd, your coming 2nd, and I think thats the highest we have ever been on the medal table! I doubt we will get any higher, looking at how many medals you have!

And I think overall USA will win because I personally think America is lots better at athletics than China (no offence)<3

I think we are doing so well because it being a home game and all, you know the crowd and that they want to win a medal especially because its a home game:)

Goodluck America, and thankyou once again<3

I am so proud of Team GB ~ also a really exciting medal was the gold won by Peter Kennaugh in the cycling ~ he is the first Manxman (man from The Isle of Man) ~ to win a gold in 100 years ~ also congratulations to The USA ~ they are doing so well ~ The Williams Sisters had a nice win this afternoon :-)

They're doing well but they have four contries and considering the population England alone is bigger than Australia's they obviously do have a really big advantage. I suppose they're compatibly small when compared to the USA or China but they still have a decent population size compared to most countries.

We know not to compete with the usa or china or Russia , we are only the size of the state of Montana and have 1/10th the population of china.. our competition is with European nations France and Germany and japan south korea ect

Aww bless you, it's been so much more exciting than Id have hoped for. Before it started I felt totally disconnected from the event, now I cant get enough. Hope you're enjoying your own sucesses as much :) The whole country is buzzing!

Eeeeeeeeeeee

Thanks! This is very nice of you! Your not doing too bad yourself! We are third in the table but it will be really hard to rank higher against USA and China since those are two excellent countries!

Am I the only person who thought that in the 10,000m last night, your guy (Rupp) who is a buddy of Mo could have overtaken him in the last few metres, I think he did a good job on making sure Mo won it in London. If he did, thanks.

Thanks, refreshing to hear - it has been a GREAT Olympics opening up many eyes all over the world

Yep they're doing very well

heh. I put it in the form of a question, but really just wanted to send you guys congratulations from the USA on your Olympic performance so far. Yes, you've got a lot of athletes participating, but taking population into account, you guys are doing FANTASTIC! Keep it up. I'm a proud American but also unabashed Anglophile

Thanks! :-). Feeling so proud to be British right now.

@salty - if your not happy here why don't you bugger off. We don't need negative attitudes like yours.

VERY terrific

You should try living here then you might not think Britain is so terrific.

thanks we hope to do even better.

Thanks very much,jolly decent of you!
