Jesus... How many folk DIDNT sing the anthem

Because it wasn't the national anthem

Missed start, wish I caught it now after you guys' comments. Good vibe going on now though.

Didn't see much of the opening ceremony but I'm looking forward to the Games, especially as I was lucky enough to get a few tickets as well.

Sound like they're playing, Now That's What I Call Music, early 90s version from a car stereo.

Indeed.

A very good opening ceremony in my opinion.

Rod Stewart's struggling.

If they had given all the crowd Buckfast as I suggested earlier we could've been listening to loads of drunk Scots deafen us rather than Rod.

Rod Stewart looks like he's been decomposing and used cocaine, fake tan and makeup to conceal it.

Jonny69 · 23 Jul 2014 at 22:59

Is Chris Hoy going to sing?

Jokester · 23 Jul 2014 at 22:59

Gave em a £5.

ROFL.

Not his finest hour it has to be said.

Has he been on the Irn Bru?

Miles better than me though

We actually just put our first satellite in space a couple of weeks back.

That's a no bad Chick Young impression.

I'm disappointed Rab C Nesbitt didn't come on in a string vest and pint in hand.

I think he was due on at the end but they ran out of time

Bad start, got better by the end

jsmoke · 24 Jul 2014 at 12:07

Anyone find route map for Triathlon, with elevations, have looked?

Merlin5 · 24 Jul 2014 at 12:57
