They needed Squeak on the team!

We'll be cheering on NZ in the final.

So will we. Squeak would have done better on the conversions, definitely.

We’re only four rows back but right in the sun. It is so very hot. I bought us all souvenir fans. Way more use than any Lacoste hoodie!

The Japan team all walked around the stadium after their placing match and Squeak & I cried because they were so sweet.

Aw, how lovely. Hope it cools down soon.

I have under boob sweat showing on my t-shirt. :(

Yikes. Work that fan!

I heard that a storm is due. This could cool things down but also cause chaos.

People are getting quite ill tempered in the heat now.

I'll admit to being ill tempered this evening, due partly to the 36° c , but mostly due to an annoying husband.

Gosh that was an exciting race. Well done Irish boy.

For such a long swim, it was tight! I'm following Murray and Evans' doubles match too, following Nadal and Alcaraz winning theirs.

Me too, I am switching between and driving Paul mad.

You have to switch back and forth in the Olympics. It's how it works.
