So I was out in Glasgow in the freezing cold for 8am this morning – the earliest i’ve been out and about in a while. This was to record for BBC radio and TV as it’s 6 months today until the 2014 Games’ Opening Ceremony in Glasgow. Today is also the day the applications open for the ‘cast’ which is to be 3,000-strong. They will perform in front of a billion at the opening & closing ceremonies. As well as the BBC, I spoke to many radio and TV stations including STV, Real Radio & Clyde 1 about my experiences in Dehli (2010).
