Olympics Gymnastics...

A few shots from our day on Sunday at he O2 the North Greenwich Arena watching Team GB make it through the qualifiers. Louis Smith was amazing on the pummel horse. He cried afterwards. Bless. More photos here.

The following day (Monday) they almost got a silver but on an appeal the Japan team topok the silver and Team GB got the bronze. The first medal in the sport in a hundred years!

Afterwards we went to the Table Tennis at the ExCel which was just as thrilling. The two Team GB competitors (Joanna Parker and Paul Drinkhall) got through to their second rounds.

London 2012 Olympics Games Tickets...

Yesterday the London 2012 Olympics Games tickets were finally opened to general sale and despite waiting for almost two hours with lots of failed attempts I finally got most of the tickets I wanted. We wanted to see a diverse cross-section of events as we could so now have 11 different sports on 13 sessions ranging from Artistic Gymnastics, Trampoline Gymnastics, Beach Volleyball and Table Tennis to Athletics, Judo, Wrestling, Weightlifting, Basketball, Handball and two Diving finals. Oh and the Opening Ceremony of Paralympic Games. So looks like perseverance paid off in the end. I'm really looking forward to the Game starting and think that each night will pretty much be a party night in London.
