Well i for one will be going to see the swimming on Tue 31st , i have got  free ticket includind a guided tour behind the scenes from work ( work for Pentland who own Speedo ) so this is a once in a lifetime chance to see the worlds best in action .......give me a choice of olympics or some over paid pansy kicking a football around a field for 90min and i will take the olympics each  time .........although im sure the diving will be a close run thing  :mfr_lol:

P.S
yes i know football is in the olympics before you point it out   :wink:

Not a fan of sport in any respect except motor sport, but it is great for the country as a whole and will probably make a mint for the UK albeit it is London-centric.

:mfr_lol: That would be a first.  :hammer:
Some companies will make a lot of money for sure, but the taxpayer will end up with a huge bill like in every other country where they held Olympics so far.   :cry:
Greece is still paying for the Athens Olympics.  :ohplease:

I love the whole idea of The Olympics, even in our own country .. indeed once in a lifetime experience even if I don't get anywhere near the action ! Slane ? Swimming tour and tickets ? Fantastic ... have a great time ( I do Triathlon hence the love of swimming )
London is already grinding to a halt ... a lot of the road closures are already "in" and Olympic Lanes open .. some of the time !! It really is VERY busy, even on a bike with "go anywhere" paint and stickers !
Sadly,as has already been said the £ side of it is almost as important to "The Games" as the sporting events, which of course is just bollox but without the money and the names a lot of stuff just wouldn't be happening.
The best place to see the action will be from the comfort of your own sofa.  :laugh:

 :censored: :asshole: :shit: :censored: :asshole: :censored:OLYMPICS!

I don't mind the sports side of it, I enjoy watching some of the athletics and the cycling.
But the way it is hyped and the 24/7 coverage has already turned me off the whole thing.
Now even half of the  :censored: adverts are Olympic sponsors blathering about how Olympic they are.
Well, P&G & BP and all the others can bite my  :asshole: and eat my  :shit:

I sincerely hope the Oiympics are a great success with most of the population stuck in London or glued to the TV, that way there will be much less trafic for grumpy old buggers like me to enjoy a good ride

Would be great except that I live 25 miles from Stratford so the traffic on this side of The Stink will be atrocious.
I was hoping that England would get to the final in Euro2012 as that would have emptied the roads nicely for several hours, but once again we were let down.  :rolleyes:

Well its now just 2 days before heading south to  do my bit for the Olympics  (but dont tell LOCOG Im not riding a BMW!)

I'm going be in the middle of  Kingston on Thames about 10 miles from the finish so they should be well in their stride and getting the sprinters helped to the finish. Where else could one be on an olympic course  (ooops sorry its caleed the Field of Play!) about a metre and a half from the worlds best in full flight, and getting paid for it too!

And.. the weather forecast is good too.
