GB have some decent male 110m hurdlers; Lawrence Clarke and Andy Turnerqualified for the semi-finals, but Andrew Pozzi pulled up in his heat and his Olympics are over.

Good Luck Guys and Girls!
The Olympics have so far been just wonderful and for someone like me who is not Sports orientated at all it has had me mesmerised at times and the huge events have just been magic.
So proud to be British and considering what a small island we really are compared to a lot of the other Countries involved, havent we done well?
What are we going to be doing when it all comes to an end in a weeks time?
@ Barry Skelhorn
Cant believe you can be so lacking in awareness & you think that these olympics just happened overnite. Two successive governments were involved, the planning started 15 years ago, many people had to be consulted & permissions sought. Positions had to be argued & contested. Who was lord mayor has nothing to do with it whatsoever.
The money came from (mostly) the National Lottery & government & sponsorship from international companies.
Now Barry, enjoy the success, enjoy great entertainment enjoy fantastic sporting achievement & stop knocking something that half the country is enjoying. Either that or go & live on a desert island where you can sart an argument with yourself whenever you want
Why? Multi-national pharmaceuticals think "saving" ( possibly) 2000 loves a year is worth it.
Thats 50,000 £ per life.
How many football pitches and youth centres, training facilities and pensioners flats would £100,000, 000 a year fund? Lots!! But the back office Good Old Boys Club think flu vaccinations are a better value.
Watch the Birdy ladies and Gents, nothing up my sleeve : )
