8th Wonder of the World


Well it is the eighth of the eighteen of the eighth year of the millennium and China’s opening to the Olympics’ was quite remarkable.

Breathe taking even let us hope the reminder of the games can live up the beginning hype. The bird nest stadium looks rather weird but wonderful.

The 29th Olympic begins with numerous drums and lots of the Chinese community took part in the banging of the dreams and the decorated dance and high style kung fu.

The next 16 days will be special and I hope enough of the public take a big interest as 2012 is, putting it bluntly, just around the corner.

London without a doubt will put on a spectacular show but for the next 16 days, we can forget about and enjoy the games of how they are intended. This game’s will inspire the next generations and hopefully some world champions at 2012.

So many rounds, so many types of sport this must be heaven for, even, the average sports fan. I will be glued I, like the rest of the public (par those bloody lazy students), have a job and will be missing much of the action but I will try to catch as much as I can.

The football season also starts this weekend and it is a shame that they clash. Football is my number one priority, but the Olympics are followed closely in second.

So for now, let us hope Britain do well and bring home lots of gold.
