Funny how these kind of events divide the masses. It would be nice if people could lighten up a bit and embrace what, for some of us, will be a once in a lifetime event. If we played the 'what a waste of money' card every time something spectacular was attempted life would be very dull indeed. For what it's worth I thought it was a good attempt to stage something a bit different from the norm that represented the creativeness, injenuity, eccentricity, and humour of the Brits. Shame on those who, like our press, always find fault with everything we do. Try being positive for a change, you might find your day suddenly becomes a bit brighter
