I got a phone call from my Mum this afternoon telling me that Maddie, our wonderful chocolate Labrador had to be put to sleep this morning. She'd been diagnosed with diabetes in January and had to have 2 daily injections, she eventually lost her sight and last night she suffered a seizure. At least she is at peace now, I've been sobbing all night.

I have a 17 year cat and I dread the day she dies and I know it won't be long now, she's a proper Diva though and you should hear the noise she makes when you walk in the kitchen and she wants feeding, its like we have been starving her or something. |

Thank you very much for the sympathy guys, I feel better this morning, you guys are such a big help.
![]() We still have another Black lab called Niamh who is now 12 in September. Maddie was only 9 so it's a bit gutting that she didn't live a full life but it's better to put an animal out of it's misery instead of letting it suffer even if it's a very painful decision to make. |

I'm really sorry Foxy, it's a really rubbish time when things like this happen. It'll get easier and you'll be able to remember the good times soon.

Opening ceremony of the Olympics is on BBC3 again right now. I'm actually getting really emotional watching it. Such a great time to be British.

Actually wept during the Emeli Sande 7/7 tribute, I didn't do that last year and I'm not even drunk, just brilliant.
I bet FIFA were kicking themselves over the fiasco of awarding the 2018 World Cup after seeing the Olympics. |

Oh my god you were so lucky! I would have given literally anything to have been there, applied for tickets and everything!
In the end went to I think over 20 Olympic events. ![]() ![]() My two trips to the Olympic Stadium the last two days meant I've been in it 9 times now. Like a second home to me.

I accidentally fell on a step on the stairs. No need for hospital or anything, but in a lot of pain, bit better though.

I love seeing public falls!! Not so much the fall but the reaction afterwards of just trying to carry on as usual despite being mortified
