Checked the route and it seems to be coming quite close to me, and it is going through the town where my parents live, so I might get to see it.
If you are interested you can check the link below to see if it is coming near you.
I'll be going to see it when it passes through Durham, as that's the weekend I'm up there visiting my parentals anyway 
I like it when things work out
It goes right past my daughter's flat on Monday and shortly after will pass below me about half a mile away.
Besides Yogi's link, there is a similar one on the BBC site:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/torchrelay
The street by street option gives the times as well.
It says it will show almost live coverage available on computers and Android systems, presumably when there are people carrying the torch rather than when it is in transit. IPhone to be available st some point in the relay.
No!
One of our friends is carrying it TB.
Very near me at one point but............6.20 am - I'm not really an early riser - would like the boys to see it though. It would be something to remember. I recall the queen driving throgh my hometown when I was probably about five - my recollection is of waving a little flag (which I was forced to give to my cousin after the event) and seeing a big car.
For many years we also used to line the street to see the London to Brighton Vintage Car Race (we used to call it The Old Crocks Race) do they still do that?
I'm sure it's going to my daughters old school as i think she said she was going down to do a sports display, as you can tell i don't listen to half the stuff she tells me
I shall watch Billy Mitchell's stint.

he's doing it live so let's hope he trips up

if it is, I'm wrong right alongside you. I'm glad my V+ box is full of stuff to watch because you just know the TV schedules are going to be SO screwed up...
Not to say I'm not interested in who wins what and I'd like us to do well. I'll watch the opening and closing ceremonies, but quite happy to see who wins what on the news.
I'm not interested in it at all,I hate sports,Thank gawd for SKY+

It will be in our town on 7th July...I expect it will get it's nails done, have a kebab, get a fake tan and place a bet.....then it will jog up to the scooter rally we will be attending on the day and hopefully will not set fire to MrB's Lambretta....although we may need it to get the barbecue going.

Not at all.
I also have zero interest.
I will confess to being a little excited. I love the Olympics anyway ...........it's a bit more special that we are hosting it this year. 
I did laugh that they all got soaked,even in Greece.
As far as I can see the closest it gets to me is Newcastle, unless I'm being a total dipstick and can't work it out even through putting my postcode or town in

Ditto... and it will be nice that it is in our time zone for once
Having said that.....I'll prolly be stuck at work anyway 
Unless me numbers come up before then

Oh Soozy, when I was six the Queen visited the Singer's Sewing Machine factory in Clydebank. We were all frogmarched down the road (the school wasn't too far away) and made to line the factory's drive and all given wee flags to wave. I was most reluctant, but not quite brave enough NOT to wave my flag. It moved very little though. Like you, all we saw was a car.

I looked at the BBC one quite a while ago and you can get right down to a street by street account.
The nearest it comes to me is Rutherglen, but it would actually be easier for me to go to Glasgow or Edinburgh which are 2 and 3 times as far away. However, as I'm not really interested, I won't be going anywhere!
Anyway, we'll have it all to look forward to in a couple of years time with the Commonwealth Games 
LOL! I was annoyed at the very first when we got them, but I guess I'll just end up getting into it and watching
OOOPS, I didn't know there was already a thread about this..sorry sweet
I just looked up the website and it's coming here on my birthday. I seem to remember reading somewhere before though that it's only running in St Andrews then 'in transit' all the way to Kinross then. I'll not bother having the day off work.
