The time is now!

I dragged JT along to the dress rehearsal for the Commonwealth Games opening ceremony tonight. We aren't allowed to divulge the details, but suffice to say that even the cynic had a great night.

Lots of laughs, some of which won't be recreated, like the crowd yelling for a speech for someone standing in for a dignitary. I'll certainly be watching on Wednesday to see the full spectacle and the surprises still under wraps.
