Anyone staying up tomorrow night to watch our Andy lead the British team into the Olympic stadium in Rio?    :)   I love his story about the moment he was asked to do this!   ;D

I probably wont watch the opening ceremony Dulciana but I will be watching a lot of the olympics in general, so long as they are not on at silly o'clock.

It starts at midnight, CLKD!! I'm a bit fed up about that, as I want to see Andy Murray leading the team in.  There are a lot of Scots who are soooo proud of our Dunblane boy and he's said how honoured he feels.  I just want to see the look on his face.... :)

Too late for me. So you should be proud of him! Can I claim a little pride of him, even though I'm English? Pleeeease? On the basis that my DH is 1/2 Scottish and I just missed being born in Wimbledon by a few months?  ;D

Once every 4 years I watch sports I know nothing about but really enjoy  ;D yesterday it was fencing  :o

If like me you love sport, the BBC red button channels are available as channel numbers on Sky tv from channel 471 to 479, you can scroll through to see what sport is currently being shown rather than pressing the red button.
