Will definitely watch some of the opening ceremony tonight - keen to see who is getting to light the cauldron as they've managed - so far - to keep that tightly under wraps.  And of course to see Chris Hoy (Sir) carry the flag, but not all the team will be there as some are in the training camp in Portugal still!

As for the rest of the Games, want to see the tennis and swimming, will no doubt watch some of the track and field stuff (things I just could never do) and generally admire people's commitment to sport.  So I guess I am a '1'.

We're having a just for fun office sweepstake based on medal haul.  For my £1 I've got the Marshall Islands, Equatorial Guinea, Paraguay and St Vincent and the Grenadines!

And of course I've bought a ticket for tonight's lottery with how many is it - 100 or more guaranteed millionaires?  Gotta be in it to win it and I don't often buy a ticket!  My sister and I are both fantasising about our spending spree!
