We're getting very excited about the Olympics here at BeGolden HQ - all this talk about 'Gold'! We're loving it!
It's the gold medals that interest us most (I don't think we're alone here).
Did you know - and I'm sounding like my Dad here - that the medals are designed every event by the hosting country? This time they have been created by David Watkins and produced at the Royal Mint in Llantrisant, South Wales. The second fact of the day is.....the gold medal is madeup of 92.5% silver!! Only 1.34% of it is gold and the remainder is copper. I can't see anyone complaining, but this does seem a bit stingy. More gold is what we say.
