That's kinda cool. She keep the torch afterwards?

That's pretty cool! How did she go about getting that sorted? Do you apply for it?

AFAIK you get to keep the torch and outfit? Loads on eBay for silly money.

Fantastic! how nice of the BMW dealership to sponsor her to do it. She must be strong to hold the torch like that! we had one at work (primary school) managed to get a hold and it almost clonked me on the head.

Well done to your mum
