Re: The London Olympics - looking forward to it?
I love athletics and love watching the Olympics ...Re: The London Olympics - looking forward to it?
London is already swamped by tourists in summer, and London is suffering from finance being diveted yo prestige events. I`m not anti-sport, but I`d rather someone else had hosted it. And I do think London is the wrong place. Why not Bath, Bristol or Stafford?Re: The London Olympics - looking forward to it?

Re: The London Olympics - looking forward to it?
I completely boycotted the Bejing Olympics, didn't watch a single event, except for the odd glimpse when I had to go into the TV room to ask OH something !! My boycott was because of their use of dogs (Particularly Newfoundlnds) for the fur trade.Re: The London Olympics - looking forward to it?
I know it`ll get worse - that`s why I`m glad I`m semi-retired. I`m in Southend and we nearly lost a local Country Park to the cycle races (cross country). It would have been `developed` and then closed to the public. Luckily, they moved it further away.Thread Tools | |
