"joys of C4... adverts might sky plus it and watch it back later, only 6 mins in and first ad break lol " thats quite quick for C4, maybe they are trying to move the breaks about to minimise them affecting the coverage? | |||

"Hope fully this will be the last ad break for the main event " to be honest, there isnt much we can do about the ad breaks so i am not even thinking about them. Just sit back and enjoy the show. | |||

They also advertised for and then auditioned lots of disabled people to present and interview on their coverage. I'm looking forward to seeing some new faces and hope it leads to long media careers for them. | |||

"The disparity between rich and poor countries is so marked on this parade. I am finding it interesting to see what I am reading into the sight of different wheelchairs, crutches and prosthesis'. Combine that with the size of the team present and it tells an interesting story. Then Jon Snow, in his way, throws in the little snippet that x country could not send a competitor as they can't afford the flight. Yet the joy and pleasure of those parading behind their flags is infectious." That's so sad | |||

Yet the joy and pleasure of those parading behind their flags is infectious. That's so sad " It is the world we live in. The thing I find sad is that the levels of disability in many of those countries could well be greater than the countries with lots of competitors. The acceptance and treatment of people with disabilities is also markedly different across the world. The scale of this Paralympics is bigger than it has ever been - that is good news and worth celebrating. I am really loving some of the outfits too. | |||

I have five cobs and 2 batted haddock what can you do with them? | |||

"Reading this post and as a parent off a disabled daughter, you have all made me smile. Where as on F/book they are saying that it was very long winded. When i was teaching my daughter to throw a ball it took almost 18 months as with anything else we do. She is 13 now and yes she can hold a ball but as for throwing it mmmmm it's at her feet normally....... So if you did think it was long winded then welcome to my world because i thought it was fabulous.... " It was fabulous and well done to you for your work with your daughter - also fabulous. The pacing is different for the Paralympic ceremony because the logistics are different. Getting chairs and other equipment with people and any help they may have is what is required and it takes time. There was a lot more flying stuff and the Flame coming across from the Orbit will also have caused some issues, I am sure. | |||

Camaron (sorry if that is wrong)said in his speech tonight "that he hoped it would bring full awareness to all disabilities"..... Yes i think it will but there will be always some that don't... | |||

Might implies no decision made yet not preplanned issues. No I don't note every post you make far from it but I have a fantastic nose a very good memory for trivial things that don't make sense and I was also brought up next to a farm. | |||

"I thought it was awesome.I loved the guy with no legs dancing. The Handel piece was note perfect and Team GB's entry was brilliant. " the guy without legs was one of the highlights of the whole event, and the Alison Lapper sculpture being centre stage was an inspired choice.. awesome.. | |||
