Day 8 - My Adventures in Glasgow!!!! (Men and Women 100m Finals Day) (28th July)

After having a lie in, today was my fourth shift at Hampden Park. After having some breakfast, I relaxed at the campsite for the rest of morning and early afternoon watching the television in the bar!

After some lunch, it was time to leave for another shift at Hampden Park! I took the bus to Battlefield Road and then a walk to Hampden Park! After going through security and  checking in, I went to the Print Distribution Room ready to start my shift!

When I arrived, there were some of the morning shift still there, sorting out start lists (they were always causing problems). So after a debrief from Jodie (another team leader) and once everyone had arrived me and Fraser (the other team leader on my shifts) did a briefing to start the shift!

After the briefing we all went down to workforce break area to have some food. (the action didn't start until 7.00pm and we started at 5.00pm). 

Once the action started the process was completely different from yesterday. (At times it felt like we walked into a different room) The thing that made it so much better, was that we had a system in place and the someone had made a excel spreadsheet which produced computerised reports instead of handwriting them! The team all worked well and no major problems came back to us. (Just we want less copies of the reports)

We continued to deliver, print and photocopy reports until the about 10.45pm. The highlight of the evening was Adam Gemill winning his silver medal in the 100m Final! (I only watched it on the TV though!). At the end of the shift we had a debrief on how the shift had gone!

Overall it was a very positives day and left Hampden Park on a high! 

I went back to campsite via trains from Mount Florida to Glasgow Central and Glasgow Central to Dumbreck! Once back at the campsite I went to sleep after a long day! (I arrived home at midnight!)

Another day completed and I'll be back at Hampden Park for another shift tomorrow! Bring it on!!!
