I've just seen the inside of the Olympic village......WOW! Very impressive, a tailored 'Manmade' village, with all facilities........ to cater for all the athletes, their managers, trainers and friends WOW!........is an understatement

It's been seven years in the making.....,. Some say 'Yes' whilst some still have reservations

Bells all over Britain, both big and small, rang for three minutes to welcome this evening's opening ceremony of the 'Greatest show' in town

I heard on Sky News that American's first lady, Michelle Obama is here giving moral support to Team USA.........In my opinion...... They b***** well need it!

I'm not quite sure who will be doing the honour of lighting the Olympic flame but the public have been told of five possibilities;
* The Queen
* Sir Steven Redgrave
* Sir Roger Bannister
 * Daley Thompson
* David Beckham
In my opinion, I would let the Queen do the honours, after all, it's her 'Year'

The Olympic torch has done its round It made its first passung through Stratford last Saturday, twenty-first of July - it was carried by a British triple jumper, Phillip Idowu, who is also a resident of the borough (London Borough of Newham) The torch did its round through the London borough of Greenwich Newham, Tower Hamlets, Hackney and Waltham Forest before returning to Stratford for its final role.......

I am lucky to be based in Stratford and privileged to be right in the forefront of the Olympic Village. The 2012 Olympics has finally began..... And without saying, the olympic games was welcomed by 'RAIN' It just wouldn't be British without our unpredictable weather!
