Our Olympic TV programme is called London Calling. I just thought I'd share the creativity.

Just watched the Olympic torch going past my office to the sound of Bow bells.

On balance, the girls on the Samsung open top bus were the prettiest, but the Coca Cola chicks had the biggest tits.

I'm rooting for Matthew Mitcham, an Australian diver, otherwise I couldn't care less.

I'm looking forward to cycling events.


Oh and the women's athletics.  :perv:

Swimming rules, followed closely by water polo.  As usual.

Ok, Cpt. Archer.

:cool:  My spaceship is probably better than your spaceship. 


E:  Wait.  Didn't Archer watch water polo matches on tape delay or the futuristic equivalent?  That's lame.  Gotta watch it live.  Also, that Enterprise spaceship kind of sucked, didn't it.  Damn.

Twitter is dangerous, Greek triple jumper sent home because of that remark.

The guy is cute like a puppy (he is one year younger than my boyfriend), and a very nice person, apparently. And he bats for the right team. :perv:

So yes, this thread just got gayer. Which, considering it's about the olympics, was already quite gay.

Seems kind of wierd to hold some competitions before the opening ceremony.

Not a new development, though.  I'm not sure when they started doing it (maybe they always have) but it's been like that for several Olympiads at least.

Saw the torch on Whitehall today. Infected onlookers around with me with my particular virulent strain of Olympic grumpiness.

" SIR – I must commend you on some of your recent obituaries. I was delighted to read of the deaths of Foday Sankoh (August 9th), and Uday and Qusay Hussein (July 26th). Do you take requests? "

If David Beckham lights the torch tomorrow, then England, or GB rather, has officially jumped the shark.

He's said he isn't and doesn't deserve to iirc.
