Olympic Flame

Today the Olympic Flame is arriving in Britain for the 70 day torch relay around the country.  95% of the population live one hour away from the route that it will be taking and will be able to see sportspeople and ordinary heros taking turns to carry the flame across the land.  We should feel good about this whether we are sports lovers or not.  It is a chance to celebrate something communally.  Don't let the nay sayers and sceptics decide your feelings in advance.  Watch its progress and make up your own mind when you see the faces of the people who are running with it or who have taken the trouble to line the route.
