So it's between Madrid and Tokyo, Istanbul has no chance
I hope Istanbul gets it. That almost guarantees Ireland/Scotland/Wales for Euro 2020

Ohh they're good pics! Cant wait for it to come through Oldham, no where near as excited about the Olympics as I am about the Jubilee but still, it's an event that I'll probably never see in the UK again in my life, so gotta make the most of it!

Yesterday the Olympic torch came to my city!
I got to see it three times! Once by the riverfront (picture below) and then we walked to city hall to see it pass by there. There was a protest behind city hall (protesting against police brutality), so the torch bearer had to detour and come back around city hall again, so we got to see it twice there!
It was nice to see it - I doubt I'll ever see it again. And there was a party atmosphere in the city. There was also a concert with Snow Patrol playing but I didnt get tickets to that

The Olympic Torch has made its way from the United Kingdom into Ireland now, here's a couple of faces you may just know carrying it through Dublin

The torch came by my little village today! A 20 minute stop and all the trimmings. Was a lot of fun. Good to see all the saltires waving. Might post pictures later if I get everything working.
As of today:
Armenia - 25 licenses
Kazakhstan - 102
Ukraine - 271
Congrats to Zara Phillips, we're going to cheer for her
Maria Sharapova confirmed that she will be Russia's flagbearer.
In a few days my city is going to host the last high jump event until the Olympics so I'll go to the stadium )))
