I don't believe it actually existed.<br /><br />As for the opening ceremony, I rather enjoyed it.

Sadly however they did not try something different with the athletes parade so it got rather dull and monotonous,250 plus counties going in a circle needs to more thought.<br /><br />Yes the moon was rather low last night and a quick wipe down would do it wonders<br /><br />By the way Mr H as a RAT there is a Diploma of blogging waiting for you should you wish to have one.

And it was not a bad effort for my first go.<br /><br />There were rather a lot of counties in that parade I think they should have brought them all in on open topped double decker buses and then filled the buses with zombies and monsters too. It would have been a lot more interesting and slightly quicker.Rob Z Toborhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03570498194207996145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808596250801819029.post-59358693159761351012012-07-28T09:47:59.183+01:002012-07-28T09:47:59.183+01:00I took some pictures of that very same cloud forma...I took some pictures of that very same cloud formation last night as well. In fact I was stood right underneath the bit where the cloud stops. It really was quite a sight. In doing I missed the Sports day parade. Im not against the Olympics but Mrs H wanted to watch Storage wars and its one of the few shows we both like.<br />Love that moon picture. <br />It was quite low in the sky last night and i thought it looked a bit dirty to me... I think NASA should send someone up to give it a quick wipe down.Petehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14381410202609567450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808596250801819029.post-33910081881357141502012-07-28T05:23:03.571+01:002012-07-28T05:23:03.571+01:00I asked my wife what kind f meat to try, and she s...I asked my wife what kind f meat to try, and she said chicken, and I responded, "NO!

They did have an interesting feeling pita bread that I almost bought at the groc store earlier today, but I think I wiLL save it for a particular sandwich recipe. I am just not sure which meat to try. Any suggestion?

But I must admit to being a bit excited at being able to hear what was going on, just by stepping outside my front door and on seeing the fireworks from the Lil man's bedroom window.<br /><br />I couldn't stick through the 100,000 countries walking the parade though and went off to have a cup of tea and a slice of Victoria sponge cake.<br /><br />Love the pictures, especially the moon shot.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06418601369080683210noreply@blogger.com
