Well a lot of people are enjoying the games and no one is forcing you to watch. Just pull the plug on your telly and/or wireless, your computer and don't read newspapers until the games are over and let it be!

"Non-swimming countries"??

The only Olympic event that's going to put a smile on Garry's face, Eric, will be the closing ceremony.
