the 1936 olympics was full of nazis, the 1960s olympics kicked black athletes for being proud
Wasn't that 1972 or 1976?
And yet another cock-up.
BBC caption read "Great Britian".

Really? I was even younger than I thought.
57 isn't really all that young though Chappers. 
Seven years of waiting, my arse. I've had more to think of in the last seven years than the bloody Olympics.

To The people who say 'it's in London. What's it got to do with me in Stockport/Leeds/Plymouth etc?' - what did you say when it was in Beijing or Athens?
I like that Mitt Romney's having a go at us now. I like it that every Republican ever seems to hate Britain and Europe.
Mick Romney: twat.
I thought it before, but yesterday just confirmed.
Arrogant knob ed.
Mitt Romney is basically the devil. Anything he says should be discounted as devilry.

I dunno what the Stockport/Leeds/Plymouth etc people said, but in London we said 'Thank f**k it's in Beijing/Athens and not London'
Who saw the footie last night? Bloody Senegal. Nice goal. We should've got that penalty though, ffs. At least Ramsey seems to be having one of his brief not awful periods. And did you see the Spain Japan result?!!
Speaking in front of a huge crowd in Hyde Park, Mayor of London Boris Johnson took the criticism further, shouting: 'There's a guy called Mitt Romney who wants to know if we are ready.
'Are we ready? Yes we are!'
There's still 9.5 hours to go, still time to fix up a few things or tell everyone to pack if needed.
Just saw a bit from the practice run- might have to watch a bit now.
