Love the 'lympics I do's. I'm glad I'm gonna be here to watch the opening ceremony and see the first week before I jet off.
Apparently South Korea are the ones to watch in the Archery.
Who's watching tonight?

I'll be watching 
- with the odd flick to see who get's the heave ho.
Jeremy Hunt was out doing his bit today... sort of.
The Olympics have not officially started and we've already got so many potential internet memes 
not many 'lympic luvvers in ere, in't it!!
I'm watching, am just marvelling at all the BBC presenters....just when you think you've seen them all, another one pops up with a microphone!

Let's hope Andi Peters doesn't appear 
I might have the opening ceremony on whilst I am surfing, but that will be it for me until the closing ceremony.

Sort it aaaat! 
I'm here and my guess is Princess Anne to light the flame
It's top secret, she's an Olympian and its Lizzie's jubilee...that's how I came to this wrong answer conclusion

I would be very interested to see how many people in this country who have got so excited about the Olympics, continue to support minority sports after the event is over.
We should see athletics events Sheffield, Birmingham and Crystal Palace sold out now should we not. But we won't, things will go back to normal with the aforementioned events getting probably the same attendances. Because most people are interested in the glitzy Olympics (glory hunters in football parlance).
I won't accept being criticised for having no interest in the Olympics, just like I won't criticise anyone for not liking Formula 1 or Football or glitch or dark ambient. It's all about personal choice. I have had this conversation on many occasions at work, it's not compulsory to like the Olympics and it's not as some would have you think being grouchy either. I hope the GB team win loads of medals and are successful, I'm just not interested in sitting in front of the box watching.
In fact I am taking the opportunity to go to the gym when it's empty.

That's it EL. Everyone to their own. Some it suits, some it doesn't. I love F1 and Moto GP but I know not everyone else does so I don't castigate them for that
