The London 2012 Olympics

I think the success of the Olympics and the Paralympics has left the doubters looking a little red faced, both were as good as each another. Even my young kids were cheering on David Weir & Jonnie Peacock in the 100m was just incredible:worship:

Codger, one fish supper near me is £6 but yeah still expensive and often is at events but hey it's only once in a lifetime event....did they taste nice?

its not all over yet, whats going to happen to all the stuff that got built?

and i'm gonna remove my DPF and tell all the green people its T's fault for not posting on my thread :devil:

To be honest they were really nice. Much better than expected at a big event.

At least one of the buildings is going to Rio (I hope we sold it to them).
The stadium was specially designed so that it can be reduced in size down to a more realistic 25000, because the centre grass section, the running track, and the lower tier of seating are all part of the base structure. For the Olympics and Paralympics the extra 55000 seats were added, but they can be literally unbolted and removed along with all the upper structure.
This flexible stdium aspect was a key part of winning the bid, so that it doesn't become a "white elephant".
