It's different

 

[numptynoelle]

It's very green. And twisty.

They've gone all London!

I'm liking the weave thing going on.

 

[Kadastorm]

It is different, the thing similar to the maypole (weave thing) I liked - gave me some artistic inspiration

 

[teapot]

Ooo slave trade, we left that bit out of our's...

 

[Kadastorm]

Ooo slave trade, we left that bit out of our's...

Yep! Quite liking this to be honest!

Slow build I think - liking this parkour bit!

I think there's something about the Olympics though that can leave you a bit non plussed, then you put it on for five minutes between doing something, and six hours later you've watched men you've never heard of run 10000m, learnt the rules to a sport you've never heard of, and start cheering a country you can't place on a map.

 

[Honey08]

I love that you can watch the same thing all over the world. its one thing I don't feel I miss out on by going away.

 

[teapot]

Is this what it's like to go clubbing in Rio?

 

[numptynoelle]

I like the seed idea!

 

[teapot]

Ooo teams time!

 

[teapot]

Seed idea is very clever.

 

[numptynoelle]

South Africa without Pistorious. Incredible he dominated London for other reasons given where he is now...
