Olympic Torch - Anyone seen it pass by yet?
I wouldn't go to the end of my road to see it if it was passing by.
IMHO the sooner the whole over-priced shebang is over, the better.Comment

It came past us and we went to watch. Quite nice to see lots of people come and watch, some guy came and passed out cheap Union Flags for us to wear.
There were LOTS of police but they were cheerful too - stopped to say hello and even high-fiving those in the street.
Was also nice they didn't get all officious and try to clear the street... the crowd parted for the torch-bearer, people ran along-side at the side of the road, etc.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

It went past the end of my road. I didn't feel the need to get up at 05:30 on a Sunday to see it. I figured it might get a mention on the local news. I was not wrong.Originally posted by wobbegong View PostI wouldn't go to the end of my road to see it if it was passing by.
