I'll have a VERY small slice of that cake please! Oh, and what is cream tea? Just tea with cream? Or something zingier?
I'm not sure what I expected, but I thought London's handling of the Olympic ceremonies was outstanding. As a matter of fact, I enjoyed the exuberance and sense of fun much more than the overly technical, designed-solely-to-impress showiness of Beijing. So, I say well-done.
Agreed - Annie Lennox was a highlight, but I loved the Pet Shop Boys. Oh, and of course the featuring of many iconic British automobiles during that number (I did wonder if BMW, who own Mini, was a sponsor or something because of all the new BMWs peeking in on the show....)
