You have all done so incredibly well, regardless of whether you are bringing a medal home or not. The commitment that you have all shown over the years just to be picked for the team is outstanding, and you should all be very proud of your effort and abilities.

I look forward to seeing you all celebrate in the "Return to GB Party" in London.

You are a fantastic inspiration to us all, and a true demonstration of what commitment means. You embody the olympic movement and its spirit. It has been a privilege to watch you on the podiums, soaking up the Anthem as you realise the success you have achieved. And even when we have not scooped the medals, just to be part of it is a great achievement. Fabulously well done!

Steven,

Hi well done, we wished we could have seen the event live but it was not televised in Australia. They showed it on TV yesterday and I missed that too, but Jack
was home from school and he saw it. He was very
excited to see you on TV.

It must have been an amazing experience to be at the Olympics competing and there'll be greater things to come! Roll on next Olympics!

Bye for now......

Thanks Gail. I Have always enjoyed your fighting spirit and your many many Badminton achievements over the years. You have been a great ambassador for English/British sport. Enjoy your retirement, it is well deserved.

Alison,

I'd never followed Archery before these Beijing games, but saw Team GB against France and just thought you were brilliant.

Watched your individual matches and just want to say your focus is absolutely inspiring. How you can block out everything around you and concentrate on what's in front of you is amazing! You have really made me think of joining my local club, so thankyou very much and good luck for future plans!

Jen, Liverpool.
