Olympic Torch Relay

Who is watching on:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/torchrelay
And sometimes on the BBC Red Button as well?

And are you going to see it if comes near you (the torch route is designed so that it passes within a 5 mile radius of 95% of the UK population)?

You can always buy the one for sale on E Bay (only used once)

well what do you know, i'm in the other 5%!

Hmm... the torch should be passing by the top of my street in a month's time, according to the planner on the website.

I might post some pics (or a vid) if I'm up early enough to see it.

It's at £151,507.00 with 2 hours to go.
But you also get the Torch bearers uniform included.

Checky B...... is charging £15 for the delivery.

This item was withdrawn..

However there is another one due to finish in the next 2 hours. It is currently at over £13k

Someone asked how they were managing to sell a torch on a 7 day auction before the relay had begun.
The seller says that they will be in the relay tomorrow evening (a time is given on EBay)and they will post it the day after.

If running the relay means so little, the organistors should give that leg to someone who isn't just after the money.

That would really stuff the seller.

It's going to pass me as I walk to work. I'd jog along with it if it wasn't so fucking early.

most of the people who are doing have been chosen for the stuff they do in the community peice on the news about it one was a disabled athelete he wants to sell his so he can compete in the transplant games.

Also said the torch bearer has already had to fork out over 250 quid for the torch so if they have and some schmuk wants to pay 13k for something thats worth 400 quid then let them.

Finished at £133,100.00

Someone else is selline one.
Bidding is at £410.
In the small print it says " You are bidding on an photo of an authentic London 2012 Olympic Torch used in the torch relay".
It then goes on to describe the torch in detail.
