Our government cannot win with people like you.. they bring us nice things and you're so quick to point out the negitives about it :S

Yes, some people do get excited about things, its not every day we get the Olympics!

4 years isnt that long.

Hey, i've just put together a few images of what the National stadium and Aquatics centre is going to look like.

The national stadium looks very UN-creative, I dont think it's that good. Although, I really do like the Aquatics centre. That looks VERY creative and I'd prefer that over the National stadium any day.

Ive just found a website that shows the other 10 possible Olympic stadium designs for the Beijing games, I'll add the link so you can take a look at them yourselves.

In terms of the opening/closing ceremony it's inevitable we'll be compared against the amazing spectacle that China managed. On that alone we will fail because we're not capable of that amount of co-ordination nor do we have that much potent culture. In comparison to Beijing our cermony will look somewhat under-performed and badly thought out but in itself, not compared to China's, it should be good. As for the actual games, I do think we can better Beijing in terms of spectators, fairness and future prospects for the stadiums and buildings we build.

i think it will look like a local community event tbh. I would love, LOVE! to see Londons attempt at being as good as the Beijing Olympic opening games. Its impossible. It'll just be something like Live aid with a lot of celebrities singing songs. Not that I care that London has the olympics but the fact is there is no chance of it being compared with Beijing.

Off topic but Do you know me? or that the 12th was in Portavogie where I live this year? I wasnt there but family captured it on dvd, portavogie red hand defenders cleared up I was at oxegen instead
