OK, I'm really starting to lose my rag here. I know its "cool" to moan about the Olympics and pretty smart to feign indifference. But the level of whinging, moaning and whining is fukhin ridiculous.
The traffics busy/chaotic? Really? If only they'd given you 2 years of notice to make alternative arrangements!
My train was crammed. No, wait, so it isnt usually, and its the Olympics that caused it? Do me a favour.
We could have invested the money spent on worthwhile causes? So, your crystal ball predicted recession immediately after we were awarded the Games did it? Various reports suggest a £1bn upside during the 7 weeks of the Games, and a £5bn upside through to 2015. With a lot of the upside benefiting some of London's most deprived areas.
Its a giant corporate fukfest. Well yes, the commercial side of things is a bit of a downer, with McDonalds the recognised fast food partner and goods only payable by Visa in the village. I'll give you that.
I dont give a monkey's about the games? Oh really? So when people like Kelly Holmes, Steve Redgrave and Chris Hoy won their gold medals, you didnt feel the slightest bit proud, patriotic and chuffed that us plucky Brits were beating the best in the world?
Look, if you want to be "cool" in London, you have to look like this-
While you're being all cool and bitching about the Olympics, why dont you shut the fcuk for a couple of weeks and let the rest of us get on and enjoy it?
Honestly you'd think we'd turned into the French...

Jetting off this week and will return just after it finishes. Not interested in archery, synchronised swimming, BMW biking or any other of that sh1t for the last 40 years so why should I be interested now? Give me the World Cup and that's a different story and they are unlikely to stop me driving on the roads I pay a fortune in road tax for during that event. |  |

Maybe because you called it a bunch of sh-t.Maybe you were only talking about that subject,but I guess you don't want the Olympics here.If that is true,you won't be very happy for the next 3 weeks,because it is definitely happening in London. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

The private sectors been caught with it's pants down unable to deliver, led by Coe of all types, and the legacy they forget to mention is thousands of the troops called up to cover LOCOG's fck up will then be made redundant in September.
I'd have much preferred we had spent the money on the Army and had gone to war on Germany instead. The world would be a much better place for it by now. |  | | |

I don't really mind the sporting events but the Olympics as a whole just seems to be one grand corporate fckfest and trough-swilling jolly for all the insiders, largely at our expense.

Legacy. There's a word to conjure with.
What legacy could be purchsed for 11billion.
Re-building every school in Britain.
A building program that could provide affordable homes for our youth.
A re-vamped national Health service .
Or a two week middle class sports day with a football stadium no fan wants and a running track noboby will use. |
well they have build new housing in stratford and really improved the area, it's nonsense to suggest all 11billion has been spent by the tax payer, most of it comes through sponsors which is why they get such exclusive rights to everything
as for the olympic lanes everyone moans about them but they happen at every olympics and are only around for a couple of weeks. The tubes have been pretty quiet this week and i got home earlier tonight for a change, long may that continue |  | | |

I'm going on Monday. To see Mens Hockey.
I know next to nothing about the sport. The GB team is not involved (S Korea, New Zealand, Australia and S Africa). But, I wasn't here the last time the Olympics were held in London and, I'm highly unlikely to be around for the next time, so why not.
I hope it acts as a showcase for all that is good about Britain. And we finish up with a fistful of medals. All the naysayers can go take a jump. |  |

I work next to the Westway which is going one lane each way for three weeks from tomorrow. Add that to the M4, Embankment etc, west London is going to be gridlocked for the foreseeable. A total nightmare.
But then I hate work, it's summer, London's going to have a party atmosphere and it will never happen again in my lifetime, so bollox. It's only three weeks. We'll look back on it and laugh.
