    Aye, proper loved these Olympics. I don't want to be an over-dramatic tvvat about it all, but I'll just say that it was good and I've loved Bolt, Kirani, Rudisha, the Mo moments, Ennis and the cycling and that. Managed to see a few events, which was nice, but I wish I could have seen more, particularly the athletics, was a poor student when the tickets were up for sale.

    An added bonus has been working from home aka playing Football Manager at home all day. Back to full time work on Tuesday.

    I went to 5 events in the end, but i would have gone to more if i had the money. It costs quite a bit to get to London, would have loved to go to the velodrome.

    Are we interested in the paralympics?
    Can't say i am, but i wouldn't turn down the chance to go to a ceremony

    Jessie J playing with Queen?? No. Just no. It would have been better if they had kept those big screens with Freddie Mercury out with him singing it.

    Plus underground if you pick up tickets at box office
    It adds up when you pay good money for events

    This was my first time watching the Olympics. It's pretty nice.

    No, those were just the events you were interested in.

    Here's something to think about.

    Where do you think you'll be in four years? It's hard to imagine that I'll be 25...
