You know exactly what I meant



There was a guy on his mobile! It's mental that the whole world can play along with each other when it wants. Such a shame that some people can't see beyond their own arrogance and let us all live in peace. [/guardian reader mode]

Woo for Britain! (we're a funny looking lot)

Isn't the company that constructed and brought us the Millenium dome and Wembley involved, I'm mean they came through when we needed it most.

Hmmm, the UK olympics are going to be fun. As its in Stratford, the Shooting comp is going to take place from the back of a BMW at 40mph.

As for the place being built. Greece only just managed it, i reckon that we wont finish intime and no where near on budget!
