It is amazing how well we have done so far in this Olympics, since we are now third in the medals table – and not all that far behind the USA in gold medal terms!

The current medal table, via the BBC:

There is no way that Team GB were expected to do so well, since we so massively under-fund our athletes. However, since the events in which we do well are very nearly over as the “real” section of the Olympics – the track and field section – gets going, we will just slip down the table…

Team GB has done us proud, no matter where we finish over all.
