Original Message
Some news from July 27th, the morning before the opening ceremony:
"When it comes to bells, nothing's been going right for Olympics organisers today.
There was confusion - even for over-excited Boris Johnson - this morning when Big Ben chimed at the
bizarre time of 8.12am.
"

Big Ben, the hour bell of the Palace of Westminster, will chime more than 40 times from
8.12am
– 8:15am to ring in the Olympic Games. This is a historic occasion for one of the world’s most famous bells, as it is believed to be the
first time
that the strike of Big Ben has been rung outside its regular schedule since 15 February 1952 for the funeral of King George VI.

WHY IT STARTED TO RING AT 8:12 AM?
Why exactly
812
???
Something related to
August 12th
?
August 12th (812) is the
Day of the Lion and the Unicorn
. That's the "Big Day" that THEY are expecting.
That's why the
CLOSING CEREMONY
of the London Olympics was scheduled to that date.
