London Awarded 2012 Games

[Mr Morse]

London pipped Paris at the post!

.....and one in the eye for Gallic arrogance!

[AMH]

Seriously ?

Brilliant - at the very least we will get a good bit of redevelopment done and it will create some work for a while - let's hope it all goes well and continues to get the support it needs to make it a success.

yeah London gets all the cash again, just like the millenium.......sod the rest of the country :D :D

my bro is happy as he works in the construction industry, but i advised him that we will both be in our 40s when it comes to the actual event...

does anybody remember being at school and saying "just think in the year 2000 i`ll be **" and thinking that will be ages away? Scary stuff.

well said.meanwhile all the people that escaped from london in the 80's when it was slowly becomming the toilet it is now will have to pay for all the transport,buildings etc etc out of our tax money never to see a penny of it invested into the places we escaped to . :tsktsk: london especialy the crappy bits around the outside that were once nice places to live .Oh and lets not forget the sportsman that will get an award for running the 100 metres in record time and earn millions unlike the people that work in our hospitals etc that will never see a penny of the money let alone any reconition of the work they do .
