Re: Team GB
We have done fantastically well and I am looking forward to the closing ceremony tonight. I understand the flame goes out tonight so what happens at the paralympic games. Does another flame get lit from the flame kept from the original lighting in Greece. We were discussing this at work and no-one seems to knowRe: Team GB

Re: Team GB
A wonderful nostalgic moment for me, was when Dick McTaggart appeared on the boxing coverage today. He won the Gold Medal at lightweight in the Melbourne olympics in 1956. Great to see the old boy at 76 still hale and hearty. Remember it well when our school was told the news at the time.Re: Team GB
I watched the closing ceremony expecting ?, well not really sure what. I did not think it would match the opening extravaganza and for sure it didn't.Re: Team GB
Got to agree with most of what you said Hammer. It was very old hat, apart from a couple of items. Seemed to go on forever, but me and the old gal stuck with it. Thought the Eric Idle act was as bad as Mr bean's effort on the opening ceremony. Surely we can do better than dig up the remains of Queen and The Who ? It was such a shame that this magnificent games ended on such a flat note.
