Nice pics but you set up another thread for pics and you need to be the first to post some 2012 ones. Hopefully you can share more. Were you really close to the front or just got a good zoom lens?

Is he shouting fuck?
Yeah!
What a fantastic night at the stadium, and at the pool (go Jo!)
Something which people might not have seen tonight...I was watching the swimming earlier on the live steram, this was a lovely moment when Yasuhiro Tanaka got his medal and flowers, listen for the cheer at 1:27:
I will post some of mine this weekend. In the Olympic stadium I was row 71 and only had a camera with a 4x zoom so won't be anywhere near as close up as yours.

You're going to have to wait. Gotta wake himself up and rewind back to David Weir and start watching again
I have lots of the stadium lit up. Which colour would you like?
I dont mind waiting. What other colours was the stadium? I only noticed it yellow or white. I want to see a nice one of the Orbit lit up as well. Any you have of the park live area, the aquatics centre, any other arenas you visited and athletes celebrating will be nice to see. I know I'm asking for a lot!You're going to have to wait.

White, Yellow (Gold), Pink, Purple, Blue, Aqua, Green
Not got as far as Park Live yet. Going to Goalball tomorrow and hoping to get into Wheelchair Rugby, but if we don't get into Wheelchair Rugby, may go to the big screens
Blue then.
I didn't go far into Park Live but is good to go up the hill to where the Agitos sign is as it is probably one of the highest points on the site outside the arenas.

Innit. Also there have been amazing gold medals for Josef Craig, Sarah Storey, and brilliant bronzes for Paul Blake amongst others.

Wheelchair rugby - "Murderball"
Enjoyed what I saw of it on the telly but didn't have a clue what the rules were, lots of forward passes

What's Eddie Izzard doing there?
Not seen him, but if he is there, then why not. Fantastic athlete

You can only have hold of the ball for so long and er... you have to crash into people a lot
He just presented David Weir's medal. I forgot he is athletic as well.

Seeing Izzard standing for the national anthem reminded me of this: (from about 1 minute in)
