Commonwealth Games start today in my home city - Melbourne.

Hoorah!

Anyone going to be watching the games, or anything of the sort?

The Opening Ceremony is on tonight (I've already seen the dress rehearsal) and it's pretty damn good.

Oh, and GO AUSSIES!

:biggrin:

You blokes have a team. They all came to the Opening Ceremony dressed in kilts. I actually lolled.

Opening Ceremony just finished, and it was brilliant. Biggest fireworks display Melbourne's ever had, I'd say. The whole damn city was lit up.

No its not, Australia is leading the medal tally. By a huge margin, I might add.

They should just rename the Commenwealth games to "Give Every Aussie A Medal Week".

It blinks in red for me =/ - You have to embed the [m] tag within the [l] tags.

Yeah, except they're only for countries in the Commenwealth, or countries who were part of the Commenwealth once (i.e. was once part of England's empire).
