Yeah.. that's the way I look at it. I've always wanted to go to the Olymics (oh and my cuz is swimming in them) so this seems like a good an opportunity as any!

Wow, your cousin must be pretty good to have got into the Olympic team! Will you be trying to get tickets to watch his event?

It's definitely an historic occasion - we're not likely to host the Olympics again in my lifetime anyway.

To be fair we were just being greedy to want to host 2 major sports events in the space of 6 years in one decade. The Olymics is more then enough. It is not like the UK needs anymore publicity.

I was never a fan of football I found it dull and boring. I once descibed it as 'People kicking a ball round a pitch'.

I didn't get tickets either. I applied for sooo many events that I actually got a little worried that it would cost a fortune if I get a few of them, but as it turns out I got nothing. Booo

What a load of bollocks.

As if the World Cup wasn't bad enough last Summer, 2012 will be spoilt by the English priding themselves in how amazing it is their country has been picked to host such a dull event.

Its not about the country, its about one of the biggest sporting events in the world taking place right at your doorstep. Ireland will even recieve an economic boost from this. People getting cheap flights to and from here to England to save money.

No better place to stage the Olympics lets be honest London is the Capital of the World it's almost a perfect fit we have prepared better then anyone in recent years for it and we at the moment probably have the best all round Athletics arguably with America
