Is anyone going to the Commonwealth Games?

There seems to be a bit of buzz about Glasgow and we've even got a little bit of it out in Motherwell, where they are holding the triathlon.

My guess is that it was intended to juxtapose the tradition of Gretna alongside the same-sex marriage bill. Inspired stuff in my opinion; a crystal clear message that Scotland's administration and its people embrace diversity (well, most of us).
I thought the whole thing was great. Not like any other opening ceremony I've ever seen before. That fits, because I think we're an absolutely unique nation in terms of our outlook.
I'd like to think that people looking at this will now see us as maybe a nation of people who don't take themselves too seriously. I like that.
Things like the Duke of Wellington statue with the traffic cone were truly brilliant wee touches.
Highlight for me had to be the wee doggies though.

Great stuff. I'm very proud.
Good to see Salmond resisting the urge too.
