I'm mentally preparing myself for the worst opening ceremony of all time.

Its all rather self serving in a "here's what we gave the world" kind of way, although I suppose it would be criticised for not being British enough if that werent the case.

It started off terribly, but its had its moments.

It wasn't so bad. The torch was very cool, and I like that each country brought a small piece of it in with them as they entered.

I also like that they actually got 'the next generation' to light the torch. rather than an ex-athlete. It was a very symbolic moment.

Couldnt believe it wasnt Steve Redgrave - but i think youre right overall.

Yeah, it was decent. But then with a budget of £27 million, youd kinda hope so.
