London 2012 Olympics

just 30 days to go
one month, 1/12th of one year, 720 hours 43,200 minutes 2,592,000 seconds

and they've shut all the car parks in the westfield shopping centre
where oh where will i be able to park my chelsea tractor when i visit waitrose just 5 minutes from my house
TELL ME WHERE

simple you get your hubby to wait double parked outside while you 'pop' in.

everythings easy if you just apply twateral thinking

I was about to suggest that on the basis of this is what we do.

Spotted what look like lots of pre-emptive tags being made to road markings like bus lanes + bus stops which be erased on Euston Road, Tavistock St, Russell Square etc. Central London is going to be horrible to ride.

5 rings being loaded onto london bridge today ... to give London that Olympic feel

right

Is it just me, or does anyone else find themselves choosing the other product WITHOUT the olympic sponsorship in the supermarket?

what, and drink pepsi
you must be kidding

what and eat Burger King
you must be kidding

Barclays fail; her name is Shanaze. Even better that she took the pic herself and tweeted it

That's unbelievably sloppy. There is actually a Stefanie Reid, but she's a Paralympic runner:

You can also add that it's 'Reade' and not 'Reid' for Shanaze.

If it hear this again I am going to cry.

blasphemer!

Ha! I thought I was odd for doing that.

No, I'm odd anyway, this is additional.

Actually, hands up, that's my one exception. I got into these after realising how much I was spending on "energy bars" - 3x Nature Valley Oat and Honey bars in my back pocket = 3x the fuel @ half the price of a Mule Pinocalada bar (nice as they are).

My middle name is hypocrite...

I reckon the contents of all those packages are exactly the same.

It's all Skub.

What Schick said.

Our bold PM manages to shout down a heckler when giving a presentation to Olympic cult devotees volunteers. Rather more disturbingly the offender appears to be removed by security yet the news sees fit to not comment on this.

They can't "disappear" all dissenters. Can they?

you'll be surprised
that dude will be in guantanamo before you can say extraordinary rendition

CPS is getting ready for the speedy prosecution/convictions they were doing during the riots last year so possibly, yes.

"A lot of people in athletics make it sound as if they are living a hard life, as if they have to go to the coal mines in Azerbaijan every morning or maybe have to work for the Daily Mail every day. That's what I call tough. We are doing sport, something fun. Sometimes athletes and coaches forget that.

Today is the last day that the canal path between Hackney Wick and Bow will be open.

Will reopen on September 10th.

nice bit of canal too

shame
