Yes I did, he came back really well, didn't think he would do it at one point.
They're showing a great mix of sport on Eurosport, not usually an Olympic fan but really enjoying it, must have been inspired by the fab ceremony!

What are you all talking about? All the venues are "stuffed to the gunnels" according to Lord Coe.

Can someone explain to me why teflon Coe is happy to give teachers tickets as opposed to dustbin men for example. >:(

Do you think it's because G4S were supposed to be supplying the audience for these events ?  :-\

Fill the seats if empty after 30 mins - sounds like a plan and next time I say allocate tickets to the "Olympic family" to the top rows not the best seats in the house
