To be fair I liked most of it and I think it was quite representative of the Uk with it's industry, music, films, science, NHS add the bling and lights, happy days. I don't even want to think how much it's cost the tax payer but if they're going to do it I'm glad they did it like they did and not all glitz and glam like some have been

And thank kcuf that the UK's cabbies and scabbies are not represented in the world's press, who showered their reporting of the event with adulation, praise and admiration for a Danny Boyle inspired, truly great work of art, something most cabbies and scabbies cannot appreciate, unless it's on page 3 of The Sun.

It's called being hospitable and welcoming to our world-wide guests, instead of just saying, " D'ya want a wee dram?"

I wonder how long that £27 million would have kept the Great North Air Ambulance going for?

Only saying because it, because if it wasnt in Carlisle in May last year, I'd be dead, and is only able to fly through public subscription.

To give you some indication of our need for your help, it costs £2,500 per mission to fly, regardless of whether or not the patient is airlifted. This figure takes into account the cost of the aircraft, its storage and fuel, paying the pilots and the paramedics, the medicine, and other equipment. Our crews respond to hundreds of call-outs a month and to satisfy this demand it takes about £4m a year in fundraising. To further emphasise the necessity of your support, the service does not receive any Government or National Lottery funding and therefore relies on the support of the public to continue its work.

I think most if not all the air ambulances are run on the same basis.
