Jeez, whoever organised this debacle sure as hell knows how to ruin a mood.

Lol fireandashes! Grin

Who've you been to see Bunbaker?

Led Zep was always good for a self indulgent drum solo Grin (not that I've ever seen them - chance'd be a fine thing)

I wasn't going to watch it, now on in background its ok I guess.

I was amused at spice girls on taxis - thought Vic might faint

catchafallingstar · 12/08/2012 23:25

i thought this was meant to be about the medal winners - naive, I know...

Do you know if the inflatable octopus was a tribute to the late Paul the Pscychic Octupus, Fire?

I bet those atheletes et al. are tired standing all that time

I'm just grateful that Tom Jones didn't put on an appearance.

Lonelylou · 12/08/2012 23:26

Go Boris!

catchafallingstar · 12/08/2012 23:27

Boris nearly set the Olympic flag on fire - idiot!

Forwardscatter · 12/08/2012 23:27

That flag looks terrifyingly close to the flame.

Fireandashes · 12/08/2012 23:27

izzy I'd love to think it was, but I think that's giving it too much of a coherent narrative!

Lonelylou · 12/08/2012 23:27

Every body stand!!!!

Bunbaker · 12/08/2012 23:28

I can't remember Agent They were fairly well known bands at the time, but not as big as Led Zep. I would have loved to see them.

Moving on. Isn't the Brazilian national anthem jolly?

Lonelylou · 12/08/2012 23:28

Sounds like summat you'd have a horse prancing to

giraffesCantTakePartInThe100ms · 12/08/2012 23:28

FunnysInLaJardin · 12/08/2012 23:32

the ceremony was great, the music was turgid shite. Stadium tedium. Very disappointing.

AgentZigzag · 12/08/2012 23:33

'Moving on.'

I've moved Bunbaker.
