yes It was indeed a moving ceremony and the one who lit the flame was amazing, climbing that height complete with his wheelchair.

I watched both events and whilst olympics was impressive the paralympics was much more of a personal touch. I thought it was excellent, the ballerina was inspiring and the guy who fired the torch was fantastic, that must have taken all his effort to achieve. I was chteering him on from my settee!
