Your memories of the London 2012 Games
Here are your memories of the London 2012 Olympics.
– Sara BlackThe overall feeling is of pride, truly exceptional and hope the legacy continues. Here's a photo of me and my two week old son Edward with the Brownlee brothers and their medals. One day, I'd love my son to participate in future olympics and represent our wonderful country. Edward attended two events, his first at just 12 days old.
@londontonight Watching USAIN BOLT make history was the Highlight of the Games Team JA!

From @Novatrouble on Twitter:– Sabrina D'AnjouI was a volunteer at the 100th Olympic Games in Atlantic Georgia USA in 1996, I was hesitant that we could meet the customer service levels experienced there, but we have surpassed them. We over delivered and I'm so proud of what we achieved and saddened that they have now finished. Well done London! Sabrina D'Anjou

@londontonight loved being involved as an opening and closing ceremony performer and gamesmaker! Truly once in a lifetime!
From @rahim_esmail on Twitter:– Sasha, EnfieldMy most memorable part of this Olympic game was seeing Usain Bolt accomplishing "gold medals" in the 100m, 200m and silencing his critics. Amazing Games!!!! Well done London!!

From @ZakRusso95 on Twitter:– Gary, DeptfordThe hightlight of the games was Boris johnson dancing to the spice girls that has made me giggle all day and would love to see it again. Many thanks.
@londontonight I thought the whole games including the opening and closing were outstanding
From @DagenhamChase on Twitter:– Victoria, HertfordshireOur best bit of the London 2012 Olympics was meeting Mark Hunter the rowing silver medalist on the tube train yesterday on his way to the closing ceremony. My 9 year old son is doing an Olympic project to go back to school with and Mark pulled his silver medal out of his bag and gave it to him to hold and have photographs with. Mark told us all about his experience and disappointment of not getting the gold medal. He was such a lovely chap and when he got off the train the whole carriage clapped and cheered him. He may have got a silver medal but he gave us our golden moment.
