OlympicIRL

The party is on without a doubt . Everyone is so happy about our first ever medal in rowing. The studio commentator was crying after the race, then I was crying, everyone was hopping up and down.... my nephew was waving the Ireland flag up and down and getting his first taste of great Olympic memories This was the reaction out in Rio among his family and fans, and similar scenes were had throughout the whole of Ireland And people celebrating at home as people gathered to watch the final....(play the video in the link) http://www.beat102103.com/sport/watch-skibbereen-erupts-odonovans-silver-medal-win/

It's hard to keep count

8th Olympic medal for Bradley and 5th gold

This is what an Olympic medal means....

WR for China in women's team sprint... GB aren't the only nation who can chuck out a WR

Well done Rosie MacLennan, a great champion!!

Yippee!! That's wonderful news

Nervous times indeed. What a great boost for our dressage if she can make it through! My fingers are crossed for her

Any chance for Judy to make the final?

OMG........ I am crying!! Paul and Gary O'Donovan..... OLYMPIC SILVER MEDALISTS

Thanks buddy.

No medals for the Campbell sisters!!

Double gold
