    We normally watch wall to wall Will & Grace (if there's no ballet/opera/whatever on).... he's recorded every one ..... so tends to have 4-6 on in a row.

    Okay, that's set my gaydar off.

    I like the way the president of the IAAF grabbed the bouquets by the flowers rather than the stems. I think he wanted to give out the medals instead :)

    Watching the closing ceremony. Not liking it as much as the opening ceremony at all.
    Hated that bit where they repeated exactly the same songs, in the same order.
    Plus, this all looks a bit thrown together, whereas the opening ceremony had a theme.
    Of course, the fact that I love Underworld, who were musical directors of the opening ceremony may be biasing my opinion. I have had Ilses of wonder on repeat since it arrived.
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    Yep. Spot on.

    Got some old film on now..... and he's nodded off.... so probably won't go meteor hunting and I won't see any more of the lympix.

    Quick! Sky+ it while he's asleep! Then you can sneak out to watch meteors and watch it on your return.
