London 2012

London 2012: Britain's bid for the Olympic games in 8 years time. Seb Coe and his mates sent in London's official proposal for 2012 today, a 60 page brick documenting how 10 square miles of the East End will be flattened (I hope that includes albert square) to develop new stadia and an olympic village. I personally would love to see the Olympics come to these shores - you couldn't drag me away from the telly during the Athens coverage, it was the best olympics since Los Angeles. To be able to hop on a train and see it live would be amazing. Also very good for the country in lots of ways. Our paralympic team were awesome in Athens, showing that the development of facilities, training and opportunities in this country are right on the ball. Roll on next July when the final decision will be made. Kx
