London 2012 Olympics

It is. But the ticketing system is a nightmare.

I went to Womad in NZ in 2009.

Hippy, folky, family fun nonsense.

Give me mud and Glasto any day.

Themmad for going to Womad.

I'll go to a London prepares for womad event.
Will be chaos when the womad priority roads are operational. Will keep an eye on TfLs womadwatch

Themmad for going to Womad.

they only went to see aswad

Is anyone else now receiving emails offering last chance tickets?

Yes. I unsubscribed in disgust.

She can't be heard telling people to use trains and buses because they'll be fucked as well. Much better to make some ambiguous statement which means no one can accuse you of offering the wrong advice.

^^ I've just filtered it as spam.

Don't mind the Fantasia stylee trailer though: London 2012 Olympic Torch Relay trailer - BBC - YouTube

But I am a sucker for all that glistens and is gold.

Screw that! I'm going to keep riding my bike.

You're just message-resistant.

You'll just have to re-womad at the time.

Well, well. So we had only been telling them since 2002 that they should have as a key component of Olympic travel a powerful Active Spectator policy and strongly promote cycling and walking. (They started a tiny ASP which was never going to be enough.) We had also predicted to them that just before the Olympics there'd be a mad rush to do things differently because everybody would realise that their public transport and coach travel predictions were hopelessly over-optimistic. Now look what's happening.

Should say "I told you so mode" but this was the closest I could find

Why didn't it blow out with that vacuous cunt underneath it?

Remaining tickets go on sale tomorrow (11am). Apparently there are still some left for the velodrome...

Lies!

Some fire stick and Zara Phillips are causing traffic jams and getting right in the way of this evening's ride.

It's already gone out..
