We have been enjoying an amazing weekend of Olympic Sport and not really watched much else. We want to say well done to all GB Medal Winners. We would love to know if you are caught up in Olympic Mania and have been glued watching T.V. or have been lucky to go to an event, waving Flags, wearing Union Jack Hats, cheering  and soaking up the atmosphere. 

Today we had to talk about Friday nights fantastic Opening Ceremony and how it got the 2012 Olympics off to a great start. The Athletes were very proud to be representing their countries with their National Flags and the evening involved history and humour. We would love to know what your highlights were and if you embraced the evening with Olympic Decorations and Accessories.

With the Opening Ceremony of the 2012 Olympic Games tomorrow night and thousands of people arriving yesterday in time for the Olympics we have been looking at where we will be to watch the Opening Ceremony. I am going to friends for an Olymics Themed evening including Olympics Decorations, Flags, Masks and Disposable Tableware. Please share your Opening Ceremony experiences with us, whether you have tickets and are going or if you are watching at home with friends.

Having watched Billy Mitchell carring the Olympic Torch through Albert Square last night we are now really in the mood for the 2012 Olympic Games. There was such a great spirit which was shown through seeing Flags being waved and Union Jack Hats being worn. Seeing Decorations and Bunting being put up to greet The Torch through many Towns creates a real community feel. We would love to know about your experiences with The Olmpic Torch whether you have run with it or seen it.

Today we are looking at the history of the 1908 Olympics, the first to be held in Britain. This was held at White City after IItaly pulled out of hosting the Olympic Games due to the eruption of Vesuvius. It is interesting to see the differences and similaities between the Games. There was an Opening Ceremony but no Olympic Torch. Britain won 146 Medals in total awarded at one group ceremony. We would love to know if you are ready for the 2012 Olympic Games and which events you are looking forward to,
