Our final medal of the day went to Louis Smith who won bronze for his performance on the pommel horse in the men's individual gymnastics. The astonishing thing is that it's our first gymnastics medal for 80 years and the first individual in 100 years. We compete every Olympics and get into finals but I hadn't realised we hadn't won anything in so long.In the interview afterwards, Louis was very modest and spoke about hoping his win might stimulate others to get involved in gymnastics. Well done Louis!
