这届奥运，中国的后劲十足！

I'm especially happy with the volleyball women team, finally re-gained the gold medal after 20 years!

The Chinese gold medalists are now in HK on a visit. I just saw two in the diving team speak in Cantonese on a TV show, and the audience cheered like crazy.

So anyway, what was the verdict? China was, as I predicted with astounding foresight, 2nd in the gold medal table. Yet it seems that in China total number of medals is important. Was China, therefore, 3rd?

And how's it going at the para-olympics?

I was touched when I saw a single-legged Chinese girl made a long jump.

Oh dear, I was going to edit my para-olympics gaffe! I guess the para-olympics is something to do with the air force........

Really? China is doing so well? That's amazing. And good ole GB second too. Let's scrap the olympics and concentrate on this one.
