Me too. They are holding some of the events in Grrenwich Park and The
Dome. They are both close by where I live so I will be in the crowd.



My boyfriend is a brickie so he is very happy!

My friends in Australia have already emailed that they'll be coming to stay!  It's brilliant news.

Of course Weymouth are hosting the sailing events.  I like to think that my being down here swung it.

I think it is about time England had its turn. Events are also being
held in Old Trafford, The Millenium Stadium and in Scotland.

Yes, and no - London is overcrowded as it is - add in to the mix another strong dose of imports (who may or may not go home after the games) and it spells "N I G H T M A R E" to me!
