For those who watched the closing ceremonies, weren't they just super? No complaints here. All the athletes seemed to be happy, all the right rock stars and performers were chosen to bedazzle, and even Prince Harry was whistling to "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" and singing along with The Walrus song. Me too. Coo-Coo-Ca-Choo.
I've seen a few Olympics come and go now, and I can't remember any that were better than these.
Bravo, London.
I have to agree that, despite my misgivings, they did a great job!
ReplyDeleteYou had misgivings? YOU??? Heh. But it turned out very nice. Wish it could have lasted as long as your tax payments are going to be on it. :)
DeleteSorry! I should have said 'a great over budget (by 6.5 billion) job'.
DeleteMy mistake!
As I tried to leave a post office in northern France today, the man behind the counter first quizzed me on my nationality (and there I was thinking I spoke accentless French :) ) and then congratulated me on the Olympic Games. He thought they were great! I never expected I'd hear such a thing. He did say Angleterre but I decided not to complicate matters while I could escape safely.
ReplyDeleteI congratulate you on the Olympic Games, too. I know how hard it must have been for you, but you pulled it off. Took off for France before the Spice Girls showed, I see. Hmmmm.
DeleteWell, I used the wrong account but I suppose you can guess who I am.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't know. Who are you anyway?
DeleteIs it all you dreamed it would be so far?
I'll bet they had to knock the pounds off for this little presentation!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking the same thing. :)
