Re: Olympics have officially Begun - But...
I have been past the Olympic Park twice today and it does look an exciting place to be.Everything looks colourful,the different venues,the flags,even spotted a couple of red telephone boxes with people queuing.
There is a lot of corporate advertising about,some of it is strategic,i.e. hiding unsightly buildings. BMW cars with Olympic decals are everywhere,not just in the designated lanes.
The sunshine and blue sky today made the whole venue look like it could be a success,I might have caught Olympic Fever today..

You need to disappear to a desert Island somewhere for the next 3 weeks, complete isolation with no contact to the outside world, that should help cure you.
Problem is the isolation bit, because there's quite a few others who'd happily join you.

Re: Olympics have officially Begun - But...
I'm one of them...can I get my ticket now please.
Today I am going to be sorting out my music on my Mp3.......putting some new nad interesting books on my Kindle........and sorting out which headphones block out the sound best....so I guess in a way, I will be building my own desert island....oh yes, and I have thousands of pictures to play with using my new toy...Photoscape.
If I get bored with those activities I can always make my Christmas lists out and write cards

A living example of Michelangelo's David, Sue
A rather fetching young Italian actor called Riccardo Scamarcio, gorgeous green eyes and not just a pretty face! A very good actor too...
