The Olympic torch is coming to a town near you soon. Unless you don’t live in the UK or Ireland. In which case, bad luck. But it is coming to a town near me. In fact, the torch is going to be carried right past my office. There’s an Evening Celebration near the pier on Friday 13th July, providing the unlucky date doesn’t throw a spanner in the works, and then the torch is carried past my workplace the next morning. I’ll be there, with my camera.
I got to see this in San Francisco once. It’s a great feeling to be witness to the torch. Hope you’re able to get photos.

Our dead end street is just off a main road that the torch went buy. We were so surprised to see so many people come out of our townshouses, we thought most would be at work. The excitement was wonderful. We felt so connected to this event.
We did win the gold in hockey too!

I am looking forward to it. I do hope the atmosphere is upbeat. And we won a hockey gold once too. It was one of the highlights of the Seoul games in the UK.
