What a marvellous opener....

"What a wonderfully celebratory opening event for the London Olympics last night, hey?" says Daisy. 

And Daisy has just spoken to her dear son in Australia who was in complete agreement with her on this matter.  A massive worldwide audience and a home television audience of 27 million viewers; and today the newspapers confirmed what we had already witnessed for ourselves - a brilliant opening entertainment to the 2012 London Olympics.

Daisy thinks the very best part of the whole extravaganza was of HM The Queen parachuting out of the helicopter with Mr. James Bond in close attendance.

"Well done, Your Majesty, your performance was terrific" enthuses Daisy as she thinks back on last evening's television viewing.

"And congratulations to Mr. Danny Boyle on his direction of the event.  Yours was a most splendid
achievement, well done!"

So now we have all the sporting events to watch, and this weekend the Hungarian Grand Prix, and t he month of August to enjoy.

  "Lets hope for some good weather, hey?" says Daisy blithely "after all, we ought to have a long warm and dry spell to ripen the corn, and to make ourselves feel good before the onset of autumn?  Unless, we might have a really super Indian summer to look forward to; but I'd rather have some good weather now, than wait even longer for some warmth and sunny days before September!" says Daisy!!!

Daisy's signing off now for she's had a long day and, did she tell you about the car boot sale they all attended today?

"You'll all have to wait for another day for that story" says Daisy....!

"Goodnight and byeeeee for now!"

Daisy
