Getting wet on a river, Olympic Opening Ceremony thread deux

[Theremedy]

Will it get awesome?

Who is roof guy?

Will the cauldron be in the Eiffel Tower?

I do like the horse though

What I said!

Lloyds bank advert now

Imagine is the shittiest song ever. What a dirge to kill the party mood.

I like horsey.

The horse is awesome

Pmsl - this is bonkers

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The horse going so slowly reminds me of that Big Bang Theory episode where Howard tries to throw the opening pitch from a mini Mars rover.

Can we just illuminate the Eiffel Tower and do the fireworks?

Bloody hell, really?? Like a sort of Olympics anthem?

Sunak must be delighted he lost the election and doesn’t have to sit through this.

It’s a hot mess and I feel we are all rubber necking

Horse vet husband is very pissed off that the horse gait is totally wrong, back legs not in synchrony…

Should have made hundreds of them. Every athlete gets a water walking Jesus horse.

If us Brits had done the horse stunt you lot and the Daily Mail would be waxing lyrical about it!

I like that orse

Oh, have just read this out to DH - perfect.
mumsnet description of these things always better than event itself!

Ooo this is good

It could have been a shark!

Paris looks stunning

I can’t believe how few people are on the bridges! If this were London every single one would be packed!

Oh actually the horse thing is dragging now

Love the horse and music

I like the glowy horsey. It's a bit tiny, though.
