We beat Spain, 36-30!!!
We’ll compete for the gold in men’s handball - and will DEFINITELY take the silver.
wOOOOOOOOtt!!!!
[as soon as the game finished you could hear screaming from just about every building .... it was GREAT!! RÚV had an interview with our Minister of Culture - who is also Minister of Sport - and she was weeping. The whole country is on its head!]

Well done - I hope you get gold!
This is the part where you’re supposed to say CONGRATULATIONS! or HUZZAH! or some sort of thing.
Yup - CONGRATULATIONS - let’s hope you go all the way! (Not much work getting done here either, but then it is the Friday before the bank holiday…)
But of course, the Olympics are bad bad bad and you don’t care about the results at all…..
