As you say, she takes NO responsibility whatsoever.

Er, the buck stops with her surely?!

Yes of course, I was assuming that the event was organised in a proper manner when I made the statement.

I have got my fingers crossed this time alright.

I'm glad I live up north and not have to deal with this.

But the company I work for are rolling in it with the demand for Olympic coverage.

Are the "limpix" lanes empty most of the time or are being used regularily by limpix traffic ? or are they just in force at certain times ?

These are 2 genuine questions from me as would imagine that they would only have the odd coach / bus etc for most of the day, but I could be wrong

The worst thing about the limpix for me so far is that every advert on tv either has sort of link to them (sponsership etc) or they have a union flag / colours on their advert

They are allegedly open to the public at certain times of the day.

Presumably at rush hours?!?!

This whole thing is a shambles and a disgrace, etc.

Been said many times before.

They had the chap who is in charge of traffic fines in London on the radio today.
He openly admitted that he didn't know when the fines could be imposed or what traffic could be allowed in which lanes.

He was not incompetent. He said that no one has actually clarified what the hell is going on.
