Well, the torch relay itself is taking place during work hours, but I'm going to try one way or the other. Originally Posted by SHARPIE

And Jedward will be carrying it down O'Connell Street!

The Gardai figured out it was the safest place for them to do it in terms of crowd control. And they were keen amateur runners in their teens. That's the party line anyway. Originally Posted by SHARPIE

Just back from the ceremony. Had a seat and it didn't rain so it was fab.

The Daily Mail is such a rag.
Just so you all know we were so honoured and thrilled in Ireland to be a part of the relay and wish our neighbours and good friends the very best of luck for a wonderful Olympics.

The Daily Mail is a frigging nightmare (but I read it for the celeb gossip!) I think it was lovely the flame went to Dublin, I'll never forget seeing the torch relay and think our close neighbours deserved it. Originally Posted by allezfred

Actually, it should have been run through another close neighbour, Paris too to be
Nice words Fred, but you are so going to rip the piss out of the opening ceremony I know!

I know, it's pretty obnoxious even by Daily Mail standards!!
This did make me though
Rachel O'Neill, nine, from Churchtown in Dublin, said: 'I came here to see Jedward carry the Olympic torch. It was awesome because, like, they're Jedward.
'I didn't know it would be a big thing with a fire on top, I thought it was a torch you would shine stuff on.'

I'm glad they survived. I seriously thought their hair would catch fire or that they would drop the torch or something.

Although I imagine the Canadians will be getting their own back for the British journos being sooooooooooooo mean about the Vancouver one.
