Olympics underway

After the surprise of seeing Mike Oldfield playing in last night's opening ceremony today was the start of the games proper and the road race over Box Hill - quite a few people I know were by the roadside...
Hope that the event persuades Oldfield to do more live shows.
Interesting to hear that it was the premiere of Tubular Bells III on Horse Guards Parade in the rain that inspired Danny Boyle to involve Mike. I was there, just behind a soaking wet Richard Branson...
