I'm planning on enjoying the Olympics.

I'm especially looking forward to the strikes by the immigration and border staff.
That and the running. I'm hoping Usain Bolt wins because he's so definitely not on drugs. Drugs are bad, m'kay?

Dammit - are they going to cancel the running too?

I was really looking forward to seeing a man who isn't on drugs run at 40mph.

Please tell me the train drivers are still striking and that the synchronised swimming is still on!!

It's a bit fucking rich for clegg minor to say strikes are fucking up the olympics for everyone when as far as i'm concerned they've been fucked up by this govt and its predecessor, and the foul creature johnson and his predecessor. I've nothing against a decent festival of sport: but these shitty games have fucked up london, thet've fuck all to do with the love of sport and rather more to do with the love of mammon.

Sadly my preferred event - synchronised striking - has been removed as a demonstration sport
