Commonwealth Games volunteer Julie Duhra has been rubbing shoulders with stars including Tom Daley and Joe Lycett after taking centre stage at the opening ceremony.
Julie Kaur Duhra, who has run Jules Convenience Store in Haybridge Road, Hadley, Telford for the last 32 years, took part in the star-studded showpiece to kick off 12 days of elite sporting competition in Birmingham.
Afterwards, she met a plethora of big names, including diving star Daley, popular Brummie comedian Lycett, and swimming sensation Ellie Simmonds. Julie said:"Joe Lycett was so nice and really funny. I actually photo-bombed a picture with him and shouted 'take it quick!' He turned round and said 'I love that!'"
