Olympic & Paralympic Games London 2012

[Cymbols]

Brazil vs Egypt was awesome. Great game, great atmosphere. Loads of Brazilians in Cardiff, a fair few Egyptians. Pre-match and half time music was way too loud though, only downside. Most of us neurals were supporting Egypt by the end. Oh, and the biggest cheer probably came when they announced that Bellamy scored.

What's the airport style search tank like? It's the one thing I'm not looking forward to, do I need to leave loads of time before kickoff?

We went in about an hour and a half before kick off and there was like, no queue to get in. You had to put all your phones and stuff in plastic bags and they went through them (not that thouroughly though). Then you had to do the whole airport stick your arms out and they search you and that's about it. The queues were massive from about an hour to go onwards mind.

Apparently it's pissing with rain in Stratford.

I've just reminded myself about how epic Beijing 2008's opening ceremony was. I feel a bit less enthusiastic about ours now, but nonetheless, come on Great Britain, do us proud!

Too much greenery for London. Cumbria 2012. Now there's a thought!

Here we go, 3 hours of morris dancing, big red buses and live music?

There'll be some black cabs in there as well I bet.

Fuck it, it's great seeing something like this over here.

[Lineker]

This is the most extravagant 6 nations build up ever.

Was that Dean Malenko dressed as a farmer?

Remember this guys, no matter how bad it is because I doubt we'll ever see it again in our lifetime.

[King Ellis]

I thought this thing had a budget, they're all playing on upturned buckets. :/

[IAceI]

Be not afeared.

I'm just throwing this out there but William Shakespeare was pretty bloody awesome.

[Lineker]

So um this is interesting
