London to host 2012 Olympics!

[Mark]

Not sure yet whether I think it's a good thing... They'll need to sort out the transport system first!

Mind you, by 2012 we won't be living in London (unless something tragic happens) so it won't really matter.

If you owned your own place by then you could rent it out at huge rates for two weeks. That'd be neat.

 

[Winmar]

London!

 

[Mark]

Spiffy, aye that's what I've told Bev before. But I honestly don't wanna be near London by then IOW for us!

The house prices in the EastEnd are going to go through the fucking roof. I still wouldn't live there though, north of the river...yuk.

 

[phlogiston]

IOW?

Eeeeeek! That post is scary Mark. You posted that before the explosions yes?

 

[Winmar]

Yeah that is rather strange, coming only a day beforehand. Bit like rain on your wedding day really.

Why the Isle of Wight?

 

[Mark]

Yes, posted it yesterday.

Winny: it's quiet, rural, and girt by sea! Like a mini Oz without the kangaroos Or aussies

And instead of a huge rock in the middle, there's a castle!

 

[Southy]

castle's

I saw so much 2012 Olympic Contender promo crap in Paris, I was annoyed they didn't get it, as it seemed I put up with all that for nothing.

 

[Winmar]

Let's all sit around and laugh at France.

 

[Goreripper]

The Yanks are jacking up about baseball being removed from Olympic competition.

 

[Southy]

one less medal for them to get I guess

 

[Spiff]

But don't Cuba and Japan usually win the baseball at the Olympics? I can't be bothered checking.

 

[Mark]

Ain't even a real sport
