    It will make a pretty cool visual.

    Also, I love stories about these games for their ridiculously overblown viewership numbers.

    Great idea for an opening ceremony. After that it'll go badly downhill I bet, too close to the last Olympics to have it on the same island and will look poor in comparison.

    So the Commonwealth Games are to be launched by, very literally, blowing up hundreds of council houses. Gordon Matheson is a satirical genius.

    Pity they didn't blow up the rest of Scotland with them.
