Re: olympic torch urgent assistance
[quote=ToffeeGuy;999314]Yeah, TV Red button was covering the Grand Prix so missed Ossy/Accys moment of fame. I have attached some pics which I took along Blackburn Road.
That explains why I couldnt find the TV coverage !!! thanks for the pics - will add them to our collection of a very special day |

Re: olympic torch urgent assistance
I have recorded onto a DVD the whole of the event from the BBC streaming video off the internet.It is rather poor quality but better than nothing.Going to have another go tonight from the replay to see if it can be improved.

Re: olympic torch urgent assistance
Yeah, whole of today is on the BBC website.
BBC - Olympic Torch Relay - Lytham St Anne's to Manchester Cleverly they have set the time of the footage to 'real' time so if you drag the bar to 10:18 it takes you straight to the Ossy Accy leg. |

It was only when I cropped it down to size that I realized the flame was visible.

Re: olympic torch urgent assistance
Yes...i can see that now I've wiped the sauce off my glasses
 .I didn't get to see the flame......going through Accrington...we were on the bus to Bury by the time it arrived in town....I did get some pictures of the preparations....but for some reason they would not up load.Just keep getting 'file Error' message. They are here, for anyone who wants to have a look. Flickr: margaret.pilkington47's Photostream
