We all have codes assigned to our roles and I don't want to give anything away. I reckon it's pretty damn amazing that, in the days of social media, 10,000 people have managed to keep the show secret so far. We were only told about our segment, but you get to chat to other members of the cast and I think I've managed to piece most of the show together. It will be awesome!

Tee hee - I'm in the Opening and Closing too; might be quite a crowd of us heading back to ED from Stratford.


After the actual Ceremony shouldn't be a problem since the Overground is running til 3am during the Games. Getting home after the dress rehearsals might be more challenging depending on how the timings go!

At the moment I'm driving to Forest Hill & getting the Overground ( when it's working !!) to Canada Water then Jubilee to Stratford.The train bit takes less than 30 mins. Not sure how to get back in the last week of rehearsals as we don't finish till 11.30 some nights, any suggestions?

Loz, yes we MAR's are on ' the field of play ' for pretty much the whole time ,yaaaay !!!!


Applespider you're right about 23.46 being the last Overground, it's such a long trek back to the station !


There seem to be alot of ED'rs involved in one way or another, maybe we should have an All Olympic Volunteers thread so we can keep in touch?

    • What is the phone number ., can you get recorded or registered service?
    • Apologies if this has already been mentioned as it's a very long thread. While it would be a great shame if post offices closed down for people that need them, is everyone aware of this service? I didn't know about it until this week. https://send.royalmail.com/ I had to send a small package and it was difficult for me to leave the house so i ordered online for the item to be picked up - it was £3.35 for a small package so i don't think significantly pricier than if I'd done it over the PO counter. And it was totally seamless, I didn't even have to print a label they bring one to your door to stick on when they collect the package. Highly recommended.
    • Not sure if this is exactly nature, but does anyone else have Holboellia in their garden? It's an absolute thug of an evergreen climber, and it seems to grow at about a metre a minute in all directions,  but it redeems itself at this time of year when it's flowering. The scent is absolutely wonderful, even with just a few flowers presently out, and I can even smell it inside the house. Apologies to anyone whose garden mine  has wandered into, but do take a moment to appreciate the scent before you cut it back! ETA: I have a zillion things to do, but I'm sitting in the garden watching the insects.  One very small hovering thing with apparently no brain (or whatever passes for a brain in insects) just flew to my Libertia, attempted to do something with a load of unopened buds, failed, moved to a just beginning to open bud, failed, and then flew off,  completely ignoring all the open flowers on the same plant. Maybe it's a reincarnation of someone like Trump.
    • I know that for some people, particularly those with small children (and possibly also those with mobility issues) the convenience of having a surgery within a very short walking distance outweighs any other considerations. Also, there is parking available near DMC for those living further away. I guess it is a matter of weighing up pros and cons. Plus, familiarity is important to some, and also many people don't realise how easy it is to change surgeries. Btw none of the above is supposed to imply that pressure shouldn't be put on DMC to improve.  Though maybe a load of their patients moving elsewhere might help focus their minds!
