It's not just me - aymes and Shiv were nominated too. I think we have a 1 in 14 chance of being selected at this stage 🙂

 

[Northerner]

Well, given that they've been interviewing people on the local news who have succeeded and I haven't heard a peep yet, it's looking highly unlikely. Ah well, it was very nice to be nominated - I really appreciate it 🙂

well in that case you all deserve it!!

it's a shame it's now looking unlikely...all you guys on here rock and totally deserve your moment in the limelight

We could make you a torch and sneek you in just before the real one comes in, or kidnap the real one.

Sorry to hear that Alan

Duno if anyone caught the one o clock news with the 83 year old who had been chosen,she was proud as punch

[shiv]

They are sending emails until Monday - so there's still time yet Alan! I've got my fingers crossed still!

That's a bummer!

That's a bummer!

Seb Coe tells me he found my story inspirational, but I bet he didn't really read it! 🙄

 

[Hazel]

Alan, it's their loss - you are a perfect candidate

 

[AJLang]

Alan and Shiv sorry to hear that you won't get the opportunity to carry the torch

 

[Northerner]
