At least there's a chance it'll be snowing in London. Let's see how those crowds cope with just a smidge of the chilly conditions the real, not virtual, athletes have to contend with. Why couldn't they have organised a Trafalgar biathlon with laps of the square interspersed with pot shots at the pigeons? |

How much of that is being organised by City Hall, and how much of it is Canada House's self-promotion? Given that they're right on Trafalgar Square, they don't take advantage very often... |
|
So you would you rather London 'celebrated'? |
|
Think I'll pass. |

>a pool of Wii in Trafalgar Square superb! |

You forgot to mention that 'this is a couch-potato-fest sponsored by a bunch of corporate button-twiddlers' with entirely too much disposable income to fritter away.
As I live relatively nearby (Seattle), the local media has been flooded with stories about $1000 a night hotel rooms booked to capacity a year in advance. I guess the economic downturn does not apply to this crowd of lucky Olympic party-makers. The real olympic medalists are the ones who can endure lasting out the hours of endless advertising. :0) |

I'll be there, but for vastly different reasons, in fact I'll be most of the way up the tower of St Martins-in-the-Fields... |
