Today was the opening ceremony. You may have seen it on TV! All went well I think. We had to queue for over an hour to get into the main arena, however the weather was fine and sunny. The ceremony had been split in two because HRH could not attend later. I think this was better as the formal bit went on a bit. Later on there was a concert with all kinds of music unfortunately it started to rain around 9pm'ish so I never saw the end as I had no rain coat with me. Found during the opening ceremony that I should have been at a meeting at '9 o'clock' , unfortunately as I had gone to bed early (I'm full of a cold) I had not seen the notice the night before and did not get up till 9:30 - it was my day off! Oh well. And anyway, when is '9 o'clock' am/pm today/tomorrow? Went to meeting at 5.30 about escorting Scouts on coaches to the Splash! no doubt i'll be picked one day. Good thing is you start 1hr later and leave 1hr earlier.
