What a show!

surreal, funny, touching, very British, with a stunning finish

- James Bond escorted the Queen by helicopter to the stadium, so that "she" could parachute in
- Mr Bean playing the bass note for Chariots of Fire
- "Abide with me" sung in memory of the 7/7 victims
- Good music
- the Olympic Flame transferred to hundreds of copper petals to make a dramatic cauldron

And even though I'm not in a team for the Ravellenic Games I still cast on for my next project. All garter stitch, so I don't need to concentrate, and portable for the travelling I'll be doing in August.
