Paris Olympics - opening ceremony

[Bonefish Blues]

I feel rather sorry for the French and their weather which hasn't helped. Great idea, but tbh I'm a bit underwhelmed.

Who is the grey man with the flowers?

Who?
Oh no! My own thread now has spoilers because i paused for 30 minutes to water the greenhouse plants!

Why is the piano on fire? No, seriously, why have a fiery piano?

The lit up mechanical horse is cool. For a minute or so.....

I'm easy to bemuse, but credit where it's due.

I prefer the slower pace of the flying horse and the procession of the flags.

I LOVED the fiery piano! This has grown on me as it’s got darker. Also, as I’ve drunk wine.

The actual silver person on the horse with the Olympic flag was incredible!

Probably being patriotic but London was utterly brilliant and told the world something about Britain and being British.

This music sounds like "The Days of Pearly Spencer".

It's propper wet now. Hats off to the performers
