No, the olympic committee and government will dig deep to get the funds.
We always manage to get there in the end. And.. i expect we wont have a very elaborate opening ceremony. But hey the way the swimmers and divers are performing at the moment in the UK, we will be glistening with gold medals.
I cant wait.

Nope . Was going to but was told to stay away. Plus the rents will be astronomical in hotels and rentals at that time.

Ahh so like everywhere else in the world. Londoners and tax payers will be paying for it for years to come.

India is not looking good for the commonwealth games at the moment.

This is the East end of London Fuzz.......... There is no way a starting pistol can be fired without some-one returning fire.

The equestrian team will come back from a tea break to find the horse up on bricks.

There will be 'pedestrian activity'.

We will fail miserably and be the embarressment of the world.

While digging the foundations, the location of Jack The Hat McVitie will be found.

The Queen will disolve parliment.

But hey, The rolling Stones are playing live in the opening ceremony.

If my Niece makes the "2012 US Women's National Olympic Soccer Team" again I'm planning on being there. She was on the 2008 US Gold Medal Women's Soccer team hopefully she will make the team again.
