hi

I thought that most of the presentation was very good. Many of the cast were volunteers and whilst maybe occasionally the odd mistake could be detected, I thought that added to the charm.

I agree with others about Paul McCartney's spot. Did nothing for me. I thought he appeared very nervous and the band did not seem together. As someone said earlier there was some problem with the sound systems.

Enjoyed the torch arriving from the river and then the lighting of the Cauldron was magnificent. And nice touch choosing a group of potential future athletes was a good one.

I thought it was a good idea not to try to outdo the Beijing performance. Well done by all.

I like sport but will choose carefully the parts that I want to watch.
