I did enjoy the rowing though.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07461569436322815787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2060029060849550094.post-15687828199724142762012-08-04T06:54:58.060+01:002012-08-04T06:54:58.060+01:00I've not seen much of the rowing - but the com...I've not seen much of the rowing - but the commentators do come out with some corkers. I heard one last night saying 'Jessica Ennis has been inconsistent in the events she's inconsistent in', or something along those lines...!<br /><br />I've loved watching the swimming and cycling - well done Team GB! (Not forgetting Michael Phelps who is just such an incredible athlete).Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07769051642180104391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2060029060849550094.post-67993465397293190882012-08-03T16:06:17.764+01:002012-08-03T16:06:17.764+01:00Well done to Team GB

NBC has received a lot of criticism here for various inanities: I enjoy the overhead views of the countryside and city as well as some of the events. To describe the opening as 'modern' was an understatement - it was unique, strange at first, but nice that the focus was on our<br />great history in literature!Margaret Gosden https://www.blogger.com/profile/00253407541215420119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2060029060849550094.post-92104583491154541842012-08-03T14:40:38.166+01:002012-08-03T14:40:38.166+01:00Loving the Olympics this time.

I believe the best always wins and when you do not you actually do not deserve it.<br /><br />London looks so lovely.I get to hear a lot of complains about the rain from my real and virtual world friends, commentators, newsmen and just about everyone else but I think it's making the city look all the more beautiful. My husband is very glad we got a pretty large screen TV last year as we get to see the raindrops, blades of grass, the clouds and even the speck of dust on the athelete's shoes!<br /><br />Congrats to you and your country :O)And Oh!I quite enjoyed that lil skit by the queen as a BOND GIRL!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04910413735418121137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2060029060849550094.post-29852880652643956382012-08-03T14:27:19.263+01:002012-08-03T14:27:19.263+01:00@Jane - the in-between events music is pretty dire...@Jane - the in-between events music is pretty dire, isn't it?

I was lucky enough to get to go to the kayaking the other day - the 'live' entertainment they lay on whenever there is a gap in the programme is pretty banal too. The strange looking creatures with a single eye on it's heads leading the crowd into dance routines is not really my idea of entertainment - maybe I am just too old.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2060029060849550094.post-39354211836226022532012-08-03T13:31:30.573+01:002012-08-03T13:31:30.573+01:00Things get on my nerves, too.
