    Ooh, I'd avoid it too. My OH did "zorbing" in new zealand a few years ago. They squirted a lather/washing up liquid inside it, to make the bubbles then pushed him down the hill. He almost choked to death and couldn't swallow or breathe... scarred for life from it!!:eek::eek:

    why do they put bubbles in it?

    Far too scary for me im a right wimp :D

    Closing ceremony looks good so far. Where's the Queen, Prince Harry looked petrified?


    I'm not a royalist but msut say I am disappointed that the Queen has appointly chosen not to go as there is no role for a head of state at closing ceremony - so the only Royas that i can see are Harry and Kate?

    Rather disappointing

    I did mine in NZ, I was given two options - strapped in or a bucket of water - if you went for the water option you weren't strapped in which meant that you just went down on your !!!! and not much fun at all in my opinion.
    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

    I have to admit that I'm not that blown away by the closing ceremony so far. But then the opening ceremony took a while to get going

    But I am switching it off now. I have a migraine and the flashing lights are not helping

  • OK, so I'm now looking at Kindles :D
    Can any lovely person tell me whats the difference between the Kindle Touch 3G and the Kindle Keyboard 3G? (apart from 20 quid and there's a keyboard on one :p Lol) Is one any better than the other?
    I know I need a 3G one as have no wifi access.
    Thanks in advance :)
