London Olympics 2012

I'm genuinely excited that London has won the right to host the 2012 Olympics. A fantastic achievement with Seb Coe being singled out, by those in the know, for particular praise but I'm sure the full package and team were instrumental in the decision coming down in favour of London.

Highlighting Britain's Olympic heritage, multi-cultural society and strong Paralympic tradition the IOC made the right decision. There will be trials and tribulations along the way (most likely a huge Government bail-out package) but in the end I'm confident this will benefit the whole country in ways we can't even imagine yet.

As a side note, how chuffed must our great leader, Uncle Tony, have felt when he greeted President Chirac at Gleneagles today? Eh, life sometimes throws you the sweetest treats once in a while. Up yours Chirac, you arrogant f*cker... shrug that off.
