Re: London Olympics

Sorry your gonna hate me.. but passing it to the kids to light really??/ Surely we had someone famous lol

Yes we did but in the spirit of the games they passed the touches over to the up and coming athletes which I thought was a nice touch.

Re: London Olympics

I have to say sceptic though I am the lighting of the Olympic Cauldron was a shear work of Art, to follow it by a song from Macca is shear brilliance. Almost make me patriotic. Rest of the world try and top that if you can

I was all teared-up when Great Ormond Street Hospital came on

Danny Boyle made us all aware of the unacceptable plight of kids in India with Oscar winning *Slumdog Millionaire*. Tonight he's gone to the next level. Everyone (7,500) participating in this ceremony at grassroots level is a volunteer and he has lightened up the lives of these ordinary people.

I'm getting texts and emails from mates and work colleagues all over the world to say GB rocks We cetainly do - and with a massive sense of humour too (Mr Bean I've always loved you!)

Go Danny Go

Hey, still off work. Headaches are subsiding but I am sooo bored as lying flat is the only way to relive it. Good news though that there are no nasty ailments but still none the wiser as to why I can't see properly. More visual tests next week and hopefully some definitive answers and a plan of action going forward.

Thanks for asking though, appreciate it

Read you other thread as well. Had a lumbar myself - didnt affect me but everyone is different.

Assume you have had a CT or MRI ?

Re: London Olympics

“gold”, “silver” and London 2012.

Marketing innovators who plan to ambush the London 2012 Games have been placed on notice by The Olympic Delivery Authority from today as hundreds of 'brand police' begin to protect sponsors’ exclusivity rights to the sporting event.

Because of a law passed by Parliament, companies can be barred from using words and phrases such as “gold”, “silver” and London 2012.

So far nine track and field athletes have been suspended for doping offences ahead of the London 2012, gold standard, Olympics games.

Among them are three who were caught in re-tests of samples from last year's world championships.
