Hey Humans, Happy Olympia and stuff!
Hope you all enjoyed last nights magical ceremonies.
I have to say, I did deeply consider hitting the sack when I saw the May poles, peasants and the repeats of Jonny Wilkinson's mug. That combined with the fact I cant really stand any of Danny Boyle's blockbusters..
Yes sorry all you Slum-Dog-Millionair-ies, theres just too much pretty and not enough gritty in his work.
....
But of course, of course, with the uniting of the rings, things only got better.
I really did love little Queeny's moment with Mr. Dashing Daniel Craig. I just wish she'd picked her chops up off the floor, for the rest of the evenings performance.
And oh to be a fly in her fascinator.... to hear Phillip's thoughts on the not so Caucasian colouring of many of the ceremonies leading faces.
Priceless.
OK, so 1 Billion of you watched it, you really don't need me drivelling on about it, clogging more of the world wide web.
So heres just a few of my little not so articulate scribbles from the late hours of last night.
- What the devil is going on. Grass? I hate the grass.
- Give us a break! That was not the queens hand.
- Do I love or detest these chaps in top hats? They got some kind of charming awkwardness, but there timing (lack of) is giving me a tick.
- Why, oh why, do the Royals look like they've been dragged here kicking and screaming?
- Did I really just see a tribute the American revolution?
- Thats enough 19th century heritage!
- NHS? :/
- They really shoulda' worked on the child catchers snozel.
- One thousand Mary Poppins's? Best bit of the show!
- errmm...yep, Im pretty sure Shrek is an American movie.
- Glow in the dark beds!! :O The bed bugs would so be screwed.
- Mr. Bean. Enough said :)
- The texting all over my screen? GET OFF MY FUCKING SCREEN!
- Honouring of Tim Berners-Lee... big fat dollops of respect for that.
- Emeli, your incredible! But when's Adele arriving?
- United republican congress of former blah-de-blah, please walk a little faster.
- Oh 'goldenballs' of glory, could you be any cooler if you tried? (Some entrance right?)
- Olympic cauldron lighting made up for everything. Heaps of powerful prettiness to behold.
Overall?...
I freaking loved it!!
So, am I the only one still singing Hey Jude?
I have to say, it was just a tad cringing for old Paul and his rusty cords. A really nice thoroughly British touch however.
....But the Spice Girls on the other hand would have royally kicked some girl power butt!! ;)
..........
Now for a spot of Eden gardening.
