Being an ageing skateboarder I enjoyed watching it this morning. The scoring was more than a bit biased to local lad Yuto Horigome..

That swimming mixed medley relay is pretty cool to watch, male / female order all jumbled up and the different strokes. GB smashed it.

The mixed triathlon and mixed 100m swimming thingy were superb.
Great to see Jonny Brownlee finally get a gold too.

Hong Kong is doing well by their standard, one Gold (first post-1997, second gold ever) and two silvers.
The chap who won gold went to the same school as I did
, and the lady who won two silvers, she’s half Hong Konger half Irish, so Ireland can claim one of her silvers.
