A bit of blatant jingoism today! Well done to Rebecca Adlington for winning her 2nd olympic gold medal in the 800m freestyle, and also for smashing the world record by over 2 seconds!
This is a big deal to us Brits as we don't have a great record in the pool. Until Rebecca won her first gold on Monday we hadn't had a woman win a gold medal in the Olympic swimming events since Anita Lonsbrough in 1960.
As for the weather, ah well...same old same old! It's a bit cooler in the lower 80's, it's dry and clear, but no one really cares because Britain won another Gold in the pool!
Well done Rebecca!
