The London Olympics Thread

Roger Waters? He wasn't there was he?

He was on with Ed Sheeran for Wish You Were Here wasn't he?

That closing ceremony was quite something. Matt Bellamy and Liam Gallagher's singing were comically bad and that's before you even start with Jessie J and co. The Opening and Olympics were very good though.

No. it was Pink Floyd's drummer Nick Mason who was on wth Ed Sheeran. Roger Waters is still on tour with his The wAll tour i think.

Loved the closing ceremony. It was just as quirky and brilliant as the opening one. See my take on the closing ceremony here.

I don't understand how Pistorius, aka Blade Runner, could claim that his artificial legs did not give him an unfair advantage when competing in the Olympics, but then claim that the other fella who won at the Para-Olympics with similar pre-approved legs had an unfair competitive advantage with his artificial legs. It's whack yo.

But i agree. Lots of truly inspiring stories coming out of these games.
