A shame people can't just ignore what they don't like, and let others get on with enjoying it! The opening weekend in London will either be great fun, or utter chaos!Robynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04175531371914205163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7166949416950161358.post-74445361091983403172012-07-07T21:33:42.067+01:002012-07-07T21:33:42.067+01:00Oh dear, I am afraid that I am one of those who ha...Oh dear, I am afraid that I am one of those who has been unable to become enthusiastic about the torch. i have managed to miss it in three different locations (not purposely I add but circumstances) although I did not get upset by that. I have met a couple of the torch bearers though and I used to work with a man who was chosen to carry the torch in Warrington and I have to say that each of them thoroughly deserved it. I am more disappointed that the olympic committee have restricted local shops from doing certain things which would have helped the towns even more. <br />I am due to be in London the weekend of the opening and I am really looking forward to seeing how things unfold there. <br />Oh, Mood Hoovers............ just pull their plug out I say. ;)cherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01266842386436970708noreply@blogger.com
