So glad someone is enjoying the games.

I spent 3 years as a project manager on the Aquatics and Stadium and this week My site team at the stadium has Just finished putting back 101 panes of coloured balcony glass in 3 days that was removed for the opening ceremony without a single breakage.

4 months of logistic planning as we had to allow for contingency breaks, spare trims etc.

Now only 45 panes left to go back in once the games are over and we remove the presidential box and TV commentry desks..phew!!
