Now the 2012 Olympics are coming to London...

: jc; 6th July 2005

mood:: happy

...I just gotta get me a job with the BBC.

Update 13:15: Wow, it was close: 54 votes for London vs 50 for Paris. Commiserations to the French.

Update 13:19: olympic.org is beig hit hard, and london2012.com is returning Service Unavailable. Heh

Update 13:26: I think the quote of the week has to go to David Beckham, who rather predictably said, "It's hard to put it into words."
