England's Fran Halsall was the fastest qualifier going into the final of the women's 50m freestyle, and she carried that form into the final to take the gold medal. She recorded the fastest time of the year and a new Commonwealth Games record of 23.96 seconds.

"Look around the city centre and the regeneration of the East End you see a modern city that is moving on. The one thing that the organisers did not worry about was the welcome from Glaswegians, not just the volunteers but the people all around the city."

Burton has been speaking on BBC One. He says: "It has been nerves, excitement, pride. That has been the over-riding emotion. Everyone is so, so proud to be part of the most successful Scottish Commonwealth Games team ever."

There was a gold in the judo for Scotland's Euan Burton, who had carried his country's flag during the opening ceremony, as he claimed victory in the under 100kg category. His success came just after wife Gemma Gibbons, representing England, won a silver in her event.

Gibbons said on Twitter:, external "The most fantastic and amazing husband who went one better and brought home the gold for our family! #soproud."

But Burton was not the only Scot celebrating gold. Fellow judoka Sarah Adlington won the women's under 78kg gold and Christopher Sherrington clinched the men's 100kg title.

Rebecca mentions Usain Bolt, and the fastest man in the world arrived in town on day three - and it was chaos.

His press conference saw him fielding questions on every strange subject possible from whether he had a kilt to what he thought of the situation in the Middle East and whether he could pose for a 'selfie' later in the day.

An interview in the Times alleging that he had been less than favourable about the Commonwealth Games then caused controversy, although Bolt denied those allegations, saying the event was great, apart from the rainy, cold weather in Scotland.

Jack:, external My favourite moment was when Claudia Fragapane won 4 gold medals and I can't believe we topped the medal table.

Rebecca:, external Bolt dancing to the Proclaimers and then taking the time to greet the crowd, what a great guy!

Heather:, external I've never enjoyed sport so much! Educational, emotional & inspirational. And great fun too.

Nicola Norris:, external So proud to be Glaswegian. So many favourite moments. Glasgow rocks.

The event Victoria is talking about is the men's sprint B2 tandem event, which was won by Scotland's Neil Fachie and Craig Maclean.

"The parasport tandems being included for the first time, to see the enthusiasm in the velodrome to support an event that had never been in the Commonwealth Games was fantastic."

New Zealand's Sam Webster won a medal in each of the three track cycling events he entered. He helped his country to team sprint gold on the opening day of competition and then defeated England's Olympic gold medallist Jason Kenny in the sprint final on Friday. Webster then ended his Games with a silver medal in the keirin final.

"Needed to be suited and booted to give out medals today. Forgot cufflinks. Here's the solution. Pretty snazzy huh?"

Sir Chris Hoy reveals his way of unique way of looking sharp.

There was even more success for England and Scotland in the judo competitions on day two. Sarah Clark of Scotland won the under 63kg final, before English trio Danny Williams (under 73kg, pictured), Megan Fletcher (under 70kg) and Owen Livesey (under 81kg) all had spells on the top step of the medal podium.

England women's hockey captain Kate Richardson-Walsh on the honour of carrying her nation's flag at the closing ceremony.

"I'm emotional, as always. It's such an honour, particularly because the whole of Team England has performed so well, it adds an extra bit of pride," said Richardson-Walsh, whose hockey team won silver after a dramatic penalty shootout loss to Australia on Saturday.

"I'm just really excited and hoping that I don't trip over!"

Team England chef de mission Jan Paterson added: "Kate has brought home four medals from four Commonwealth Games, she is a fantastic role model for the team and it was a team vote that decided she would be the flag bearer."

Richardson-Walsh will be in action later tonight. The closing ceremony begins at 21:00 BST.

We don't know what Alex Salmond thought of his fellow countryman Gavin Rumgay, but it certainly made the rest of us laugh.

Nine-time national table tennis champion Gavin Rumgay decided to give himself a 'wedgie' and then dance around the table like the third member of The Proclaimers after fighting back from two games down to beat Canada's Pierre-Luc Theriault.

While the home crowd lapped up the 29-year-old's antics, the officials were not as amused - reprimanding him like a naughty schoolboy.

"I'm just in the zone and it happened. I got a warning and a yellow, but it's a funny yellow card," he said.

Frankie Jones bowed out on a high, claiming a gold and five silver medals in her final competition before retirement. The Welsh rhythmic gymnast isn't done with the Commonwealth Games, however.

The 23-year-old spoke to the BBC at Hampden Park before the closing ceremony: "It's been an incredible experience, the best thing I've done in my sporting career. It's the last competition for me as an athlete but I hope to be involved in future Commonwealth Games as a coach."

Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond:, external "Commonwealth Games have been a gold medal performance by organisers, athletes and volunteers. #bestgamesever"

Paralympic champion Neil Fachie was the hot favourite to triumph alongside Craig MacLean, and the Scottish pair met that expectation with ease, winning gold in the B2 1,000m time trial.

Soon afterwards, England's Joanna Rowsell was celebrating. The 25-year-old, who won an Olympic gold in the women's team pursuit, came to Glasgow as the world champion.

Now she can add the Commonwealth title to that after beating Australia's Annette Edmondson in the final of the 3,000m individual pursuit.

Murdoch was not the only Scottish swimmer to make a name for himself.

Scotland's Daniel Wallace was a gold medallist on day two and pretended he was William Wallace after shouting "for freedom" after winning gold in the men's 400m individual medley.

Apparently he had been watching Braveheart staring Mel Gibson a little bit too closely just before his final.

Elsewhere, England's Chris Walker-Hebborn smashed the Games record to take the victory in the 100m backstroke, while countryman Liam Tancock finished third to win his eighth medal Commonwealth Games medal.

There was another Englishman celebrating as Ben Proud won the men's 400m individual medley, winning in a new British record time.
