Thanks Matt. We don't have any tickets, but are planning to travel to some of the venues a week or two after Friday. Things will be more settled then, travel wise. Hopefully

The enthusiasm for the torch relay has not abated in any way. There were Great bits of TV footage from central London, with the working day brought to a standstill.

One moving scene was of the wheelchair torch bearer crossing the Millennium Bridge, opposite Tate Modern. There were no spectators on the bridge.

I work on Oxford street and got out of work early so I could miss the traffic of people on the hot tube. Temperatures were 30 degrees and a few people already fainted...a crowded tube is never good. Especially with the extra million people each day over the Olympics :/

What's your choice of bell??
We Brits have all been asked to ring a bell--any bell--at exactly 8.12am (Greenwich Mean Time) this morning. That's because it will be 12 hours exactly before the start of the Olympic 2012 opening in London. Is that Exciting or what?:-) specially at this time of the morning!
So, ever the obedient child, here's what I'm ringing:



Richard, you need to stop listening to Chris Evans & get ready...go find a BELL.:-)

I'm not sure my neighbours would appreciate me ringing my bell? I had heard of this but I haven't registered on line yet. Stranding, my bell looks like yours! It's my doorbell. When I'm in my garden, I can't hear the front door so we put this brass bell on instead. Works a treat.
