36th position in the medals table in Atlanta 1996 with only one gold medal. Steady investment and improvement since then til 4th in the table behind USA china and Russia in Beijing was the best I thought we could possible do. Now this time we have 27 gold medals already and it looks like we will finish third. Blimey.

I loved Bill Maher's tweet recently that stated how thrilled he was that the USA was beating everybody "in gym class". Not exactly a tough task, I believe he was suggesting. Anyway ... not staying up nights worrying about it, and neither are you, surely.
