[CILLA]

Daughter just sent a text we have silver for the eventing team. Gold went to Germany.

Congratulations to all the team was so good watching them in action yesterday.

[CILLA]

Fab rounds from Tina and the old girl Mary!! Shame Zara had 7 faults, Germany beat us by just over 5 ... so expensive round BUT a brilliant team performance nonetheless under massive pressure.

OBEs for Tina and Mary please whatever happens this afternoon.

 

[Cupcakes and Horses]

Well done

Nail biting especially Mary's round.

I don't know if I can cope watching again today!

 

[Mince Pie]

Eating my hat RE having Tina in the team - well done that girl!!

Can't understand why Mary has not been given an honour already she deserves a knighthood.

What was also fantastic was the coverage on the lunchtime news. Some decent coverage at last!!!
Massive well dine to Team GB... And fingers crossed for Mary & Tina this afternoon

 

[paulineh]

Well done. We deserve it.

Hope Mary does get a gong but shes not a footballer or pop star.

Roll on 2016 mary will be there again

Ladies all did great,but just wanted to mention Mr Fox Pitt as he had a great round too,no poles down and within the time,well done that man!!

Gold would have been amazing,but silver was a huge achievement when facing such quality competition,well done ladies and gents of team GB

Fantastic silver for Team GB. Thought the 5 of them were brilliant XC yesterday.

Am also secretly so pleased for Caroline Powell getting a bronze with the NZ team. Lenamore is an absolute superstar

 

[Taffytheone]

Couldn't agree more Scotlass Lenamore is one in a million x

 

[Slightly Foxed]

BBC Radio 4 news has just announced that Zara has got a silver medal, they did actually say 'as part of the British eventing team' but no mention of the names of the other team members. How sycophantic!

Can't understand why Mary has not been given an honour already she deserves a knighthood.

It is very odd that cyclists and rowers get gongs when they have hardly been in the sport for ten minutes, MK has a lifetime of effort, and success.
