            So proud of all of them! Aimee wilmott got the first gold for 40 odd years for England. Swimming. First since Sharon Davies. That's some achievement! For heavens sake she's from 'boro '
            No one from here is supposed to do well, never mind achieve anything!!! So pleased Charlie did well too :)

              I went to Middlesborough twice for the same football match. We drove up there (4 or 5 hours - I can't remember exactly) only to be told the game had been cancelled due to frozen pitch. We went back up there to watch the rescheduled game a week later.
