Norwich or Peterborough to bid for 2028 Olympics!

This has to be a joke surely!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2028_Summer_Olympics

With plans already in place to build a 100'000 capacity sports stadium in Eastern England, championed and proposed under the Labour administration of Gordon Brown, either of these two Cities will be expected to bid as part of that process. However, with the 2012 games having been held in London only sixteen years earlier, the bid is expected to fall short. However, officials backing the bid have already cited the close gap between the games being held in the USA in 1984 and 1996-a gap of only twelve years. Norwich is the favourite at the present time, with additional facilities including a revamped Carrow Road, home of the football club, as well as those at the UEA. Water based events will be held at Pensthorpe, near Fakenham.

Hmmm, wonder if I can sub-let our house to an Arab Prince...

Fakenham.

That's not a real place, surely?

Oh yes - a nice little town about 10 miles from the Norfolk coast.

Cool

Driving gloves and a chocolate bar addiction.

Chicago lost out on their chance. Oh well. I can drive 3+ hours and arrive in Lake Placid to see what happens to a place after the Olympics leave.
