Paralympics Passed Over

Boris did us proud today, waving the Paralympic flag for 2012 like a pro. Clearly having taken notice of some of his critics from the closing ceremony of the Olympics 3 or so weeks ago, our Mayor appeared buttoned up, smartly tied and confident in his handling of the flagpole. The double decker bus made a second appearance too, sans dubious celebrities but featuring a tea lady and Nelson mounting his column. Thus, Beijing bowed out in a blaze of golden dancers and fireworks. It's all down to London now.
