Commonwealth Games

[The Laughing Policeman]

I'm also looking forward to the reception our next door neighbours give us when it's our turn to enter the stadium.

[Louzie0]

I had no idea that Lesotho was in the Commonwealth. Or Malawi. Wow.

Quiz question... which two members of the Commonwealth were never part of the the United Kingdom or the British Empire?

[Lucky Eddie]

The athletes should be banned from filming themselves on their phones and iPads.

[Louzie0]

Rwanda as one?
And Bangladesh?  Aargh, no!

[cdbearsfan]

Yep. Well done Lou. Mozambique the other one.

[Ducksworthy]

Interesting, but very shocking, info-graphic doing the rounds on Facebook and Twitter. I knew it was probably quite a lot, but I'm amazed it's as high as it is.

[cdbearsfan]

I think that might be part of the reason they got Barrowman to kiss a bloke in the early stages of the Opening Ceremony. Fair play.

[Louzie0]

Well, something clearly has to be done, that's disgraceful.

[Louzie0]

2 things:

The Commonwealth has a lot of islands, including Lesotho

And


I love that big screen.

[peter w]

I know. Could have got two women.


Disgusted of Uganda.

[The Laughing Policeman]

I think Huw Edwards mentioned that it's the biggest big screen in Europe. I bet they didn't get it from Argos.

I think that might be part of the reason they got Barrowman to kiss a bloke in the early stages of the Opening Ceremony. Fair play.

I'd expect Barrowman didn't take much convincing.

[The Laughing Policeman]

The Commonwealth has a lot of islands, including Lesotho

I think that may be a legacy left over from when we ruled the waves.

[peter w]

Lesotho? An island?
