Can we talk about the Lympics? This time four years ago it was all we were posting.

This time we don't seem as successful - getting fourth where last time we might have got a bronze, falling off horses, not qualifying in heats where we were expected to etc

What I'd like to know is:

Am I remembering it wrong? It's just early days and we had our share of those experiences last time as well. Give it time and it will pick up.

Was the home advantage massive? They were the perfect conditions for us and we're not adjusting to Brazil's foreign climes?

Are you enjoying it? (Pants and Creo aside of course). Last time I used the red button to watch everything. Now every time I watch, I seem to jinx them into making a mistake.
