Given a massive thumbs-up from the Olympic Committee ..... "Best preparation for any Olympic Event I have ever seen"

Too often we put ourselves down, think we cannot do anything great, everything is negative ... well, this is an even better achievement in that case!

I know it's early days .. but it looks good ..... I blame Labour myself!

I have been pro Olympics from the start, I dont mine paying the walnut whip in return for the summer we will get in 2012.
The only thing that troubles me, well two things.
1, I am moaning on NSR and I try my best not to moan, I tend to just argue.
2, Being on time and budget is BIG news, As Chris Rock said Thats what they are supposed to be.... Low expectation having mother fu*&ers.

But it does look good and I hope its chance to show the world that British (and Italian) builders and designers are the best in the world.

 

Great at planning everything. When it comes to implementing it we fek it all up!!!! lol

 

Lets hope its all ready to go when its needed. Plenty of time to screw up yet, but I dont think that will happen. Pity most of it takes place in London.

 

^^^^^^^^^^ davegtt ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

There we go, a negative ..... we are well beyond the planning stage!!

 

Weymouth gets a good shout too!!

 

I think Bracknell might have the mountain bikes, and did Bournemouth get something too?
I know Ripley just missed out. And I think I heard that MK might have had something?

 

Is there a list of what happens where? I would particularly like to go to watch the bikes, will they use the Manchester velodrome? Is it Bracknell for the mtb's ?

 

Found this for a start
BBC SPORT | Olympics & Olympic sport | London 2012 | London's 2012 Olympic venues
its not very comprehensive but its a start.

 

It was a joke, hence the lol on the end. Im optimistic about it all. Shame we foofed up Wembley stadium but Im sure they'll get this right because the FA aint in charge

 

Thanks Tim, looks like if you live in the midlands or the north you have lucked out.
All darn sarf................................ unless you wan to watch the footie.

If you live in Far Corfe you might as well ............. far corfe

 

I believe that the Olympics are completely in budget, i also believe that when MP's tell us they bought **** and charged it as an expense its a mistake They are very good at keeping us in the loop

 

well done cus when i'm finding it so tough that i can't afford to travel to work least i know the recession hasn't affected the Olympics

 

I really don't understand this gripe, it's the LONDON Olympics!

 

Pity most of it will be pulled down after it.

Their building new ranges at Woolwich when they have Bisley!!! Yet Bisley has everything thats needed including pistol ranges.

 

I hope it goes well, and i've faith that it will. We did a good job of the Commonwealth games up here in Manchester and all the money put into that really helped the city out.

I like visiting London and think the transport system is very good (although manic at rush hour) I'm sure they will come up trumps

 

It seems like a good start, hope it continues that way.

I've said it before, those Poles do a damned good job

 

remember the aggro when it went massively over budget? it could end up costing £20billion now and no-one would bat an eyelid given the debt we've got now. it would be a drop in the ocean.

what once looked like awful timing couldn't be better now

yes it's the british pessimistic way, but i'm sure we'll find some way of fecking it up yet.

 

they cant hold the mtb racing in bracknell all the bikes will get stolen
