Olympic opening ceremony

We were all up this morning to watch the big show. I must say I enjoyed it and was pleased with the themes presented. That is saying something for someone who is a MG.
I thought the historical perspective was well done and brought into focus the current UK well with its cultural diversity. I loved the singing at the beginning with the Welsh, Scottish , Irish and English children and loved the redition of ‘Abide with me’ -so beautiful. Old gits like me must have appreciated The Jam as well as the 60s and 70s music with the modern teenage story as the backdrop.

My only moan; no problem with the NHS but cliche land was entered with the focus on GOSH-again. Please save us.

Looking forward to the rest and late nights
