My Kind Of Olympian

Squirrelled away in the BBC's coverage of the Olympics Gold-fest yesterday was this class quote.
Asked how he's going to celebrate after winning gold in the double trap, Britain's Peter Wilson responds: "I'm going to get very, very drunk and probably do something silly." Sweden's silver medallists Hakan Dahlby asks if it'll be a free bar at the pub where Wilson used to work at back in 2009 and the 25-year-old says he hopes so.
He's only young, so I'm sure such refreshing honesty will be beaten out of him before Rio in 2016. He should, of course, be thinking of the children.

It's not been a very good couple of days for the righteous. Bradley Wiggins was 'at it' too just the day before.

That's the Olympic spirit, lads!
