Bronze for Tweddle

Like a rowing, cycling Platinum.

Personally I think the girls gymnastics scores should be weighted by height and weight.

The amount of power she was generating in her routine compared to the nymphets was off the scale!

Go Tweddle!

Nothing like a cheap laugh, eh?

Whilst it does seem the British gymnasts are starting to come good, it feels like Tweddle has been around *for ever*. The girls come to the international stage younger than the guys and when she started we were *nowhere*.

It's all very well making a fuss about Grainger with her three silvers and a gold, but it seems to me Tweddle's bronze knocks that into a cocked hat.

Tweddle for flag carrying in the closing ceremony.. If anyone deserves it more than Ben Ainslie, she does..

I'm already waiting for Emma Thompson to fall on hard time, just for the headline "Emma Thompson falls on hard times".

It doesn't rhyme but it would still cheer me up.

Better to recruit Beth to the Cycling team and get "Tweddle Pedals to Medals"
It is simpler than it looks.

Perhaps she'll engage in some sabotage in order to get the stuff onto eBay?
