There are just not enough words to describe the emotions that I have experienced during the .

There have been highs and lows, some phenomenal performances and lots of tears (happiness, frustration, anger, and more happiness), and that has just been in the , let along anywhere else.

David Weir did a great job on the track on the final night of action, , and overall it was the best night of athletics for the team.

David came into the Games with Britain's best chance of winning athletics gold medals and a lot was expected of him.

Well there are few words to explain on Saturday night apart from saying 'He was robbed'.

David did everything right. He had confidence, and he figured out that the best way to run the race, was to go to the front and control it, and finish with devastating speed.

He called it his 'bogey' event, and he destroyed that myth with a perfectly executed race. As he came off the track that he had never won an 800m race at this level, and thanks to the Australians, he still hasn't.

Little did he know that just a few hours after the ecstasy of winning, he would be left devastated because of a protest.

Bird's Nest Stadium, Beijing

At the Bird's Nest on Wednesday there were some but not from the person we expected it from.

David Weir's T54 400m race was one of the biggest finals in the evening session, the one that we all thought (including many of the international coaches, athletes and British fans that had come to watch) that he was going to be the cert to win.

If I was a betting person then I would have put all my money on David Weir.

The excitement amongst the here in Beijing is almost palpable.

I went on Friday to the warm-up track to watch the team's final preparations and everything looked great.

You can tell that wheelchair racer is in great shape and pushing well, not only by the speeds that he is hitting on the track, but also the fact that most of the other guys who are there are watching what he is doing.

Within 36 hours of the Olympic Games closing ceremony the flags in the city of Beijing were changed to Paralympic ones.

The message that I have seen in Beijing is that things happen here fast. I came here a couple of years ago when the foundations of the athletes' village were being dug and it seemed impossible that anything would be ready.

If the rumours are true, in the last two years there have been 200 new hotels built in Beijing and in the past six months many underground stations have been made accessible for disabled people.

Since my first visit to Beijing there have been many dramatic changes, not just physical ones, but more attitudinal ones.

After competing in five Paralympic Games and , Beijing will be my first Games in the commentary box.

I made my Paralympic debut in Seoul in 1988, winning a bronze, but I enjoyed .

in Manchester and am looking forward to eating ice-cream in Beijing, rather than competing!

Myself and my husband Ian have identical tattoos on the top of our right feet; the word 'EXPIRED' and then '--/--/--', which are the spaces for the coroner to fill in the date with a pen...
