Hope you are all well though. Take care!

Flippin' 'Eck!!!!!!!!!!! :shock: JUST AS LONG AS DANIEL STAYS SAFE this will be a great way to open the Olympics. 8) It will probably be the only part of the games that I actually watch since I have no interest in sport generally speaking... :wink:

Extraordinary moment two helicopters dived dramatically low under Tower Bridge to film Bond themed sequence for Olympic opening
ceremonyStunt thought to have been for short opening ceremony film being directed by Danny Boyle


The helicopters may have been carrying Daniel Craig in his role as James Bond

Not sure how Bond will fit in but Danny Boyle sure is going very English in this theme! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/olympi ... Boyle.html

Really looking forward to his opening ceremony, the thing is he will get slated for if he does not represent scotland, wales and northern ireland in his green and pleasant land and it is mostly the south of england he has presented, I am sure he hasnt been that daft as to miss them/us out.

Oh if he is from Manchester, he just has to do it right then, and represent everyone. I will always remember the Queen's last jubaliee, silver one. Our burning beacon for the north east of england was in Manchester, i was disgusted. Kept thinking so how we suppose see that from here like, (newcastle). Its deffo getting so better though, the torch is going thru north shields, on Friday the 15th june, so going to see that.
