An Olympic flame maybe.
But it is just a flame. That's it. What people are getting all excited about. Flocking the streets, being so merry about. A flame?
Hmm. If ever there was a case of the Emperor's New Clothes, it's this...:rolleyes:
It's like something out of a kiddies fairy tale book.

Yeah, and that's another thing. What the heck has David Beckham got to do with the Olympics? Nothing. He's so yesterday's news.
Personally I think Sir Steve Redgrave should have been at the helm. If you accept the flame concept, that is.
Wrong. He was very involved with the bidding process. The guy has every right to be involved with this.
I wonder if you used both hands and all your fingers, and concentrated really hard, you could count the number of people that are noticeably filled with more hope, and I mean have significantly higher levels of hope than they did before witnessing it.
I was watching on BBC Breakfast.

it's funny seeing the locals stepping in the way to get their photos.
those Goons in Grey will be pretty tired by the end
Well I have to say I am rather more hopeful after seeing it. Because this means its not too long til it starts therefore the end will come as well. And I am very much looking forward to it all being over
And if people want to go and see it being run around the country no issue to me. Hope they have a nice day out.
Thanks. Some old man's got it now. He's just ambling along!
Got to be hard work constantly looking out for the public like that!
This was when religions were inventive and interesting, probably around the same era we were telling tales of Thor, Freya, and Valhalla. It was rather sad they were all replaced with that "follow all these rules or you burn in hell, and be ashamed to be human" monotheistic dictatorial nonsense.
The lady goon on the left walks like a penguin.
The black one?
I know
What's with all the ambling along?
I get that one or two of the torchbearers are old/infirm but why aren't any of the others jogging along with any vague fitness?
you're so right
