I think my parents got tickets for the athletics, wouldn't mind nabbing one of them!

Went to Athens Olympics in 2004, it was so good! Even shit things like handball and softball became good!

I'm probably due to work, but I am very much hoping to be outside of London when this takes place.

Ive got tickets to the football in Manchester. Team GB on the Thursday and another match on the Saturday. Going to have 3 nights up in Manc which should be cool. Would really love to get something in London too. Have to get in quick on the re-sale in April.

I'm not going, but i wanted to get tickets for as many of the combat sports as i could, Judo was the one i was most hoping to get tickets for (only coz jiu-jitsu isn't an olympic sport and judo is it's closest relative)

That just means they`ll block every road and you`ll probably not even be able to access your house.
Plus you`ll have soo much shit everywhere from the cyclists and bystanders.
You reckon the city will cleanup?

spot on.

when they did the practice run last year, i was lucky not to be about.

but yea woking council are shit, so i dunno, theyll probably just get the community service lads to clear up, so itll probably be a half arsed job.
