Among those getting ready are a total of 70,000 volunteers, already a significant way through the million hours of training they will receive ahead of the eight million hours of volunteering they will deliver. Over eight million people have said in a recent survey they are getting ready to line the streets and cheer the thousands of community heroes carrying the Olympic Flame around the UK. Two million school children are learning about the values of the Games and the countries and cultures of the 10,000-plus athletes from over 200 National Olympic Committees coming to compete in the UK.Spectators are also getting ready: eight million Olympic and Paralympic tickets will be in the hands of British sports fans by the summer.

^ Oh right! I got public transport cos there is no parking available at the stadium (plus I can't drive!).
Getting there was fine. Getting home took time, as it took me around 40 mins just to exit the stadium and get to Stratford underground station, which would normally take about 5 mins. But I guess that was to be expected with the sheer volume of people all requiring the Jubilee line!
Told my cousin to collect some thing for me near Croydon from Stratford, he was it 'll take 2 an a half hours to get there which normally takes 40 to 50 minutes.I said don’t go
I took loads of pics too, but Danny Boyle told us to save the surprise til Friday.
It would be good if you took those pics down Lippy cos it kinda ruins the effect for people who are waiting for friday. It's like soap spoilers. Even the media haven't published any pics.
