Olympics

Well it's started! A disappointing beginning in Glasgow, after they showed the wrong flag to a very small crowd, but quite honestly the Olympics isn't really exciting us overly all the way up here. I received many emails asking me to take my youth group to see the football but I'm on holiday - and am enjoying it! No Brownies til next week.

Despite saying that I have been eagerly looking out for Olympians in my area after discovering we had some resident nearby in the run-up to the Games. Didn't spot any.

This morning I rang a bell in the car at 08:12 http://www.allthebells.com/ as did my other 1/2.

We will probably watch the opening ceremony, and he will certainly watch many events. I'll watch the odd one or two. I love the gymnastics.

Hope you are enjoying Summer.

I enjoyed the opening ceremony last night. I particularly liked the sequence with the kids and the doctors. That was fun.

And the lighting of the cauldron was very cool. I'd never seen anything like that before. It's different to have the flame in the middle of a stadium like that.

I enjoyed the opening ceremony, and the events have been interesting. It must be exciting to be close to it.
