Only 365 days to go

Today, in exactly one year's tinme, the Olympic Games will open in London.  And I am delighted to report that your grandfather has a ticket to attend the opening ceremony.  I can't wait.  It seems like yesterday when the President of the International Olympic Committee announced at a special event in Singapore that London had won the bid to host the 2012 games.  I have long been enthralled by the Olympic Games, and adore watching this once-in-four-years event.  It's wonderful that they will be happening in my home town.  After all the miserable news, it is a delight to see the media focusing on something so positive.
