Olympics opening ceremony: poor España

[alluvial]

I stayed up to watch the Eurovision song contest results when I was 6.

So it's early for a 13 year old.

He's okay. I've given him a tinny and a packet of woodbines to keep him quiet.

Actually, my 12 year old is beating me hands down so far.

I blame the Stella.

Well don't let him drink it then.

Steve Redgrave still tipping the odds, then Roger Bannister and a Royal, probably the Queen. Any of those will do me.

Gah, kids these days

Some of the athletes look really happy which is nice - must be a great experience for them.
There do seem to be a lot of oldies as well - are they the groupies?

Peru lovely outfits.

Lighting of the flame is part of the opening ceremony. Things might warm up again then too.

Oh and the Philippines.

Even Poland has dressed up.
