Olympics always start with the water events - which is where we punch well above our weight. So we do really well on the medal tally for the first week, and then we sorta plateau a bit.

I can't have it on in the background. I have bathrooms to clean and I'll be too distracted and unproductive if the Olympics is on.

I missed us on the boat. I watched the opening ceremony and my feed started with Cyprus. It was most bizarre. I'll have to seek out that bit specifically.
