It was announced today that the Olympic torch will visit Nottingham on its journey around the UK in June 2012.
The torch will stop overnight in the city on 28 June 2012, with Nottingham City Council hosting an evening of celebration. The torch relay will set off from the Robin Hood Statue at Nottingham Castle the following morning on its way to Derbyshire.
Some of the places the torch is to visit Newstead Abbey, Sherwood Forest, Sherwood Forest Visitor Centre in Edwinstowe, the National Watersports Centre, West Bridgford, Victoria Embankment in the Meadows where I grew up before heading for the overnight stop at the National Ice Centre at Nottingham Arena It will begin its journey to Derbyshire from the Robin Hood statue outside Nottingham Castle on 29 June.
I hope to be able to see it that day as it passes through my home
