What an innings from Kellie
A caricature of Paris 2024. Its class.
The Taiwan one who got bronze looks like shes about 14 and wouldnât hurt a fly
My missus wanted to know why your one presenting the medals was wearing Kellies gold medal.
Terrific scenes. Another brilliant display by Harrington.
Lots of roads getting paved here in the studio.

The centrepiece of AmhrĂĄn na bhFiann is the final syllable of the penultimate line.

The way it echoes and breathes and expands and lingers, setting it up for Shoving Connie Around The Field, which is a line which nobody sings, they just roar like bears.

4 in a games is beyond phenomenal
Just saying it to partner here that it was the biggest deal imaginable when John Treacy won a silver in 84. I watched the whole of 88 Olympics and we hadnât a sniff anywhere.
Itâs unreal how it can come together with a plan and some dedicated unselfish people
