I imagine most of it will be televised during the day. I will definitely watch bits and pieces but won't be glued to it 24/7.

Talking Heads should be chopped off! People want to watch The Games, not a bunch of idiots all trying to get a word in. Grrrr.

Well shoot me for not being politically correct 8-)

But I have had the opening ceremony on for quite some time, whilst I was dishing out dinner and cleaning up, and all I have heard so far are didgeridoos and Aboriginal dancing.

Bored. Going to turn it off and watching something else.

I watched it for a little while and it was, as you said, all abos and didgeridoos. People in the real world will think that the Gold Coast is Aboriginal territory. I bet the Gold Coast lot are not happy. Wonder what the News says about it? Must check. :rofl
