Women's Pair Rowing: Helen & Heather won GB's first gold in London. BIG, BIG classical sport in Britain. 16 000 on the stands and 9 000 along the track cheering and shouting like crazy

The Royal Mail has promised to put their olympic champions on a special stamp within 24 hours

The special stamp, which features an image of the golden girls smiling and waving to supporters following their historic win, will be on sale in more than 500 Post Office branches, including in Stanning's home town of Penzance, Cornwall, and Reading, Berkshire, where the pair live and train, from lunchtime tomorrow.
A fleet of 90 Royal Mail vehicles will deliver the stamps across the UK, while their feat will also be marked by a red post box being painted gold in both Penzance and Glover's hometown of Lossiemouth, Moray.
