OK am I the only one who thinks it wasn't a wise idea to get Cherie and Laura Bush sitting together at the openning ceremony ?

I missed it - was it as bad as normal opening ceremonies?

It's not finished.... the initial had a couple of good things now it's athlete parade - boring.

I saw a bit of it - people floating under planets and Boticelli's Venus and oh, why do they do these things?

Actually it was quite good... now it's Pieter Gabriel singing Imagine

Cool - just turned it on - quite like Peter Gabriel

Tedious imo

Whizzz · 10/02/2006 21:34

Yup - turned it off now

Did you not like the "dove"?

but it seems I am the only one bothered by Cherie and Laura attending together.
Now it's Pavarotti.

I can hear Pav.

I left the room where DH is watching about an hour ago.

It's been on since about 6.30pm hasn't it?

I thought the ski-jumper was cool in the early part of it.

yes and I like the baroque stuff too.
The dove was impressive.

Also had not seen C & L together. Not prepared to comment until I know who planned seating! I have been involved with enough seating plans to know that the participants in an event are not all necessarily happy with their neighbours!

They seemed chummy enough...
