Olympics

Having brought up the Olympics in another thread, I thought some of you might like to talk about this marvelous event. What do you think of it? What will you be doing over the period? Will you be cooking anything special? What about an Opening Ceremony dinner? Any suggestions?
Being a Sydneysider,  I can tell you from the experience of 2000 that it's fantastic to be in an Olympic City when the Games are on. So get yourself home WL even if your not a Londoner.
For me (due to time zones) it will be two weeks of sleepless nights and bleary-eyed days watching highlights of the events I've already seen the night before. The food will vary from shared feasts (with overnight visitors) to solo 
catch-as-catch-can from the fridge

All this followed by regret when the flame is finally extinguished. I can't wait!
