Festival news

Illuminate Bath starts one week tomorrow. Eek. Lots of work still to do before then but it's great to see it all coming together. I'm really looking forward to the launch party. Lots of interesting people coming including The Mayor. It should be a great evening. I just need to decide what to wear!

Olympic Stadium Aug 2010

Last month we visited the Olympic Park in London. It was really exciting to see it, I think it's going to be amazing. The Olympic stadium will have seating for 80,000 during the Games. It was really interesting to hear that the back stage area and changing rooms for athletes etc will actually be under ground level, beneath the floor. After the Olympics the capacity will be reduced and it'll be turned into an Athletics stadium.
