Day 1 of the Olympics

[Dawn]

You can buy a variety of Wenlocks apparently. Steven got to choose between a gold one and a union jack one. The online store has more options I think. It is expensive but it's a one-off and he'll keep it safe. During the gymnastics Wenlock sat in the cup holder between our seats.

One wenlock limit per boy then (including Ben )

We bought just the 1 Wenlock. I draw the line at £23 for a tshirt when they are £9 in Sports Direct.

We bought the Games programme and the Day programme though, and bought a Games programme for my parents who dog-sat for us.

Made in China.

Don't feel like the Lone Ranger. Our opening ceremony uniforms were made there too! People are not happy!

Tom (... let's hear it for national pride! )

I think the UK outfits were supplied by Primark.

Thank you do much for sharing your experience! It sounds like a wonderful time. I love it when everyone pulls together and makes you proud

I surely thought you'd have your "HELLO TINK" sign up over your heads, but nooooooo...

10th August - men's volleyball semi finals - I'll have my HELLO TINK sign.

Do it do it do it

[Dawn]

Between every point.

Hmm. I'll have a think but we will probably be too laden to take one to the athletics not to mention too far away.

Wish we'd done it for the torch relay now as you could clearly see everyone on the live feed
