this thread is dead to me

Lets have a look at the track record.

500 days to go and they launched the web site to sell tickets. It failed.

500 days to go and they launched the Countdown timer. It failed.

So far so good! We're sure to get the accolade for the worst Olympics ever! We just need to keep up the consistency!

Here's an idea. They could check it before the launch event to see if it doesn't work to make sure it doesn't work later.

Is that a yes or a no to my polite request?

1) if they didn't C0ck it up, we couldn't moan, but they will so we can.

2) I can't stand this country so I couldn't care less if it goes right or wrong. However, it will go wrong because the wrong people are in charge.

But then we have the wrong people in charge everywhere. Which is why I can't stand this country.

I am moving country when it all starts !!!

Holy fish!!! £2012 for the opening ceremony I bet the £20.12 seats are not even in the stadium Love the way the next bracket is £150
Beach Volleyball on Horseguards parade??
£450 for diving -

Keithd - I'm not surprised its taking a bashing - would love to go but cannot afford it. One ticket for diving is 2/3 of my wage now!

I'll stick with the childrens games and the para - if that isn't to prohibitive too.

Though to be pedanctic - olympics in great Britain - please call in olympics in London. That's like say commonwealth games2014 in Great Britain when its in Glasgow. - Okay ignored that - ther e is to be football played in scotland and other stadiums

I share carl's sentiments on the olympics and many other things we try and do as a country. Everything we do is generally crap and the olympics are just another chance to show how crap we are but with the whole world watching (and while we bang a shedload of cash down the drain in the middle of a recession).

Remember the millenium dome? Wtf was all that about? "To commemorate the millenium - we're building a big dome.... in the middle of the docklands (which was quite a crappy place at the time).... which we'll then sell after a few years because it's crap and no one's interested...."

I bet the french are glad they didn't win the bid now... "ah ah ah, luke at ze stupeed ingliszh over ze pond..."

There's a simple fix.

If whatever you are in charge of fails, We imprison you for the rest of your life.

...or shoot you, your choice!

End of **** ups.
