I haven’t really got caught up in the excitement of the Olympics but knowing that I’m not able to see the torch’s travels when it comes to my town I found I was disappointed . I've decided that as this is an historic event that I would like to be a part of I will travel a little further to witness a once in a lifetime event For anyone interested in the Torch’s journey click on the link where you can find the date, area, along with the time and street name! http://www.bbc.co.uk/torchrelay/day1

I certainly wont be bothering to watch the opening ceremony, if I wanted to watch several hundred folks who havn't worked for the past 4 years wonder around in tracksuits I'd just sit in our town centre any Saturday

well on a completley diffrent note the olympic comittee have comissioned a bell to be cast for the opening ceromony and true to british tradition instead of having it cast in taylorsbell foundry the biggest and only purpose built bell foundry in the world in loughborough they ahve given the contract to whitechapel in london who have asked a bell foundry in holland to cast it as they are not capable how pathetic and truly british for the london olympics well done

It would appear Olympic Euphoria isn't too contagious Karen.... I for one will not be unpacking my red, white and blue pom-poms. 'cept of course for Missy Queeny Jubilee Party..

Karen fantastic idea for us far too lazy to hav to search for said torches progress....

Unfortunately working far too much to see the light tho...

Methinks i need a holiday rather than frying my brain with mastering the lights on machines at work....thankfully managed not to turn the intubators or haemofilters off yet!

Keep smiling karen-i luffs ya :-) lol
