Manchester Commonwealth Games

Did you guys catch the opening ceremony last night?

The games are a really big event for Manchester, and we're all hyped up around here (as you can probably tell from my sig wink

)

huh? you mean you don't even know whats its about?

You belgian fool, its the equivalent to the Olympics, with fewer countries so we've got a better chance to win big grin

Actually come to think of it, virtually everyone is playing apart from USA, China and Russia.

Now, where is Kiwi Leia? The Commonwealth is crimianlly under-represented around here...

Err... why rugby, yerss?

I was watching the diving the other day. That is still an event that makes almost no sense at all to the casual viewer. They all looked damn good, whether they were scored at 60 or 90.

The new John Smiths Advert with the diving in is really funny.
Raz, didn't realise you hail from the Manchester area, where about are you from? and did you manage to get any tickets for any of the events?

Yeah, I like the football one where all those blokes are playing "keepy-upy" and when it goes to that fat bloke he boots it over the fence and says, "Ave it!". Always makes me giggle.

Can't say I'm too excited about the games yet. I've had sport overdose this year so far with the world cup and then the golf the other weekend at Muirfield. No doubt I'll get into the games over the coming week though with all the coverage its gonna get.

Just tried to book some tickets and the only ones that are left are hockey ones and the final ceromony.

I'm going to try to get to the final but its not going to come cheap! A cool �100 (~$150) for the cheapest seats going up to �160 (~$250) for the best. eek!
