    Parts of it are more like a religious celebration than anything else which is a bit weird.

    The Olympics is always a bit like that though.
    Humans need ritual. The Olympics managed to do that on a MASSIVE scale without involving religion. Gotta admire that!

    Fcuking love this song.

    Right, I'm off. Good job London. History, music, culture. Hit the right notes, and pretty spectacular. More personal and human than Beijing. But the moaners will say there weren't enough fireworks.

    Well done DB!

    I doubt they will. I'd imagine it will get in the way of the javelin.

    I take it you just came in at the Melty Face Mc Cartney bit.

    Either that or you need your eyes and ears checked for begrudgery.

    Got to agree. As much as I respect him as one of the best musicians the world has ever seen, he's looking a bit old.
