I caught the end of the ceremony before I went out last night. I'm hoping that the Olympics this year are a storming success, the reason being that I love to see doubters proved wrong (supposedly, people weren't expecting the Greeks to complete the stadia on time, etc - I'm inclined to think it was motivated by a kind of racial prejudice), whilst I thought they were perfectly capable.
The facilities in place are meant to be top notch. Go Athens, show the world!
And go UK athletes, show the world :-D
