Dr Anne was up fresh and motivated again after her two days holiday. She was on duty at the Greenway Hub. She arrived in plenty time. She found out that five people were on duty for a job that two could do easily. Libby, the young lady from Somerset arrived too, she being a Victoria Gate person too. One of the volunteers said we could have the day off...
Dr Anne spoke to the manager who kind of shrugged his shoulders. Off went Libby and Dr Anne. They were not angry, they were not sad, they were more frustrated really. What would they do? It gets a bit boring walking round the park.
The two headed for the stadium. The morning audience was coming out so they just walked in. They went to the help desk and were told that they should not have got that far and should leave. They wanted to see the flame.
See the flame they did.
What to do now. It was around 1430. They looked around the stadium and breathed it in. They went up to one of the top seats and sat there very happily. Gradually around 1600 the staff came on duty but they didn't bother the two. The public started coming in and with a full capacity audience they had to rethink their strategy. They went out and edged up to a mature volunteer. They were told that they shouldn't be there but he wasn't going to report them. He advised hanging around the food area until the start of the evening session then go to the disabled area and keep moving during the session.
The two went to a corner for supper and chat then after 1830 they went in... They saw the long jump, the high jump, the javelin, the 100m hurdles semis and final, the 1500 metres final and the 200 metres semis.
