      That's a very handy link Nicos, thanks. If there's nothing better on I'll probably watch the opening ceremony. I will be watching some of the events. I quite like some of it, which is odd because I generally avoid sporty things.

        Looking forward to watching some of the events and still managing my sleep!
        I dream of a better tomorrow, where chickens can cross the road and not be questioned about their motives....

            I love the Limpics and will be watching as much as I can. Definitely the athletics and equestrian events plus swimming, rowing, cycling, gymnastics and tennis.

            Actually it would be easier to list what I won't be watching... (Not a lot)

            I loved London 2012 and took the 2 weeks off work and went to spectate at as much as I could, including super Saturday which was awesome!

              I love it - and I'm off work. I'll either take up nocturnal hours or record the bits I want to see

                We will be watching what we can, love the Limpics too.
                We went to the Paralympics in 2012 and saw all the best races. That atmosphere will never leave us.

                  I love the Paras as well, I also think that The Last Leg is brilliant.

                        It won't be me, Nicos! Even if I'm awake, I shan't be watching the Olympics!
