Well FT I didn't remember his name so I'm not sure I saw him, there was a lot happening with the field events going on too, and a lot of T46 running :D.

So that was my last session and I'm sad. :(.

I am, and my wife will confirm this, the big time cynic, "waste of time, waste of money blah, blah". I'm also an anorak, so the mechanisms of the Games, the physical structures, logistics even the politics and years of machinations around very site have been fascinating to me and once I walked into the site. Listen to see the excitement on my grandaughters faces, and all the other yougsters there, I think it was better than Disney. We had to have a Mcdonalds in the "biggest McD's in the world :oops: :D.

I thought the main stadium engineering looked good and fairly simple and I liked that a lot of the roof structure is unwanted gas pipeline, as they use plastic for that now.

The sports that I've seen have been the icing and the cherries on the cake :lol: 8).
What a long strange trip it is.
