Team GB

I hate the phrase "Team GB". Especially when it just refers to a horsey-looking girl who can swim, and some sailors. Which sounds more like your average crowd at the G-A-Y Bar.

PS: Thank heavens that the weird paedo-lure diving boy is out of the games. It was annoying and wrong. Apparently, straight friends have had similar trouble for years with Hermione in the Harry Potter films, but that doesn't make it better. I'm overjoyed that we now have the Phelps - let's face it, he's the American boyfriend we all dream of - a grinny enormo-lunk who drinks.

He is not quite out of it yet - he has an individual event on Friday! We can fancy him in 2012!

Oh, Michael Phelps... Last night I dreamt he gave me a gold finger...

2012 is sounding more and more exciting as we speak. Not only will we all be able to tut in mild disappointment at diving boy now he's grown up and got rubbish hair.

But also, the Phelps will be back in the country. If we all clubbed together, we could build a tank to keep him in. Oh come on - there's so much of him, we could share.

I've wondered about the wisdom of the Team GB thang, too. I mean, don't we have any athletes from Northern Ireland? Wouldn't they feel left out?
