I thought the opening ceremony was very well done.............in particular the forging of the rings, 007, Mr Bean and the lighting of the cauldron were brilliant.
Danny Boyle might be Lord of the Rings after that. ;D
Just watching Bradley and his team chasing the leaders.............our first gold hopefully.

Have they started already? The BBC coverage of the Cycling is awful, they should have let CH4 cover it, no gap between the breakaway and the peloton. They have no idea who the cyclists are apart from Wiggans and Cavendish who are nowhere. I hope the rest of the coverage is more professional, it could not be worse.

Hopeless they cannot even tell which Country got Bronze, not the name of the rider but the country, hopeless!

Just said the same to my wife, absolutely hopeless when you don't know if the gap is being closed.

It is not an event which works well in the Olympics, why should Wiggans and Froome work their socks off to put Mark Cavendish in a position to win the sprint finish it does not make sense, they have a time trial on Wednesday to try and win themselves a medal. If it was a team medal it would make more sense but not for an individual medal. Andrew go back to organising your wedding,( have you got all your fishing stuff on Ebay?) it was Vinokourov who won.
