Yesterday was probably one
of the most memorable days of my daughter and myself life so far. Thriller Thursday at the
Paralympic Games really was a thriller, from beginning to end. We were lucky
enough to get tickets for the athletics and I had absolutely no idea what was scheduled
until I was reading the Evening Standard on the way. Not only did we have the
Jonnie Peacock/Oscar Pistorious head-to-head (which Jonnie thrashed after the
stadium erupted and chanted his name,) but also two more golds in the space of
an hour thanks to David Weir and Hannah Cockcroft. The stadium itself is
breathtaking and I felt completely overwhelmed after watching it on the telly
for weeks. Once you're inside it seems a lot smaller and you have a great view
of everything, wherever you're sitting. Singing the National Anthem three times
in one night and witnessing Paralympic history being made was incredible...
It's something I'll never forget.
