Though I'd start a thread as this is an event that all of us will only experience once in a lifetime......to me the best part will be the legacies with the superb infrastructure left behind....

Stan- I was at the women's hockey in the group match v The Netherlands and agree we were clueless going forward.
As a Leeds boy I have pride in Nicola Adams achievement. She deserves all the credit heading in her direction.

Absolutely coeliac1, a brilliant performance!

Congratulations to local girl Jade Jones for taking the latest Gold!

Not sure about Jamaica taking gold tonight in the relay, regardless of their fantastic sprinters....

Looks like the gold is tomorrow....

Go Mo, amazing performance, already an athletics legend, a double Olympic champion.

These games have been totally riveting, what am I going to watch next week?

Roll on the Paras, for more National pride and fervour, did Australia come to London?

Mexico : olympic gold,... bravo...!.....my big dark horses for 2014....

Well done team UK.....fantastic overall performance....29 golds......superb result and third behind the USA and CHINA.......and we are a smallish country !...

Fantastic from start to finish like a good many others I will miss the greatest show on earth, well done to everyone involved.

Superb Olympics,... what more can be said ?.....

Awesome? :o)

Yes , it proved a lot of people wrong including me , I think the cost will be worth it. How much would it have cost to promote tourism to the UK on such a scale and sport and we have the OLYMPIC sporting venues also now.
