Olympics

[Oli]

Went to watch the Cycle test event this morning. Bloody brilliant spectacle. Never seen cycling live but it's really really good, even if they do fly past in about 3 seconds.

I saw it too. Was pretty impressive the speed and the closeness of them all.

Parking at Olympic stadium all booked

Oooh. Excited. My allocated football tickets mean I get to see "Team GB" at Wembley on 29th July.
Was expecting Egypt vs Uruguay or some such.

Bale to Ramsey to Wiltshire - goal !

2 x nights booked @ £40.00 each per night in Kensington. Think this is respectable judging by some of the other prices that I have seen.

I think England would probably improve on a number of levels if they hosted the next Olympics.

What do you mean if ? We are.

A number of tickets coming up for resale this morning. Anyone had any luck in buying any?

No complete shambles as usual. Website kept crashing saying things were available and then they turned out not to be.

Not quite sure why they did it this way. Why not ask anyone with tickets to resell to register them by date x. Sort the data out and then release them for sale from date y. Do it on a lottery basis again on the proviso that anyone with tickets already for that sport or has x number of tickets already can't enter the lottery. Once the lotery over, any tickets left can be first come first served.

I cant understand why people would want to sell them

after the morning chaos I managed to get some hockey...

There was still some athletics tickets if you had a spare 300 plus...
