I believe our Cathy can take all the credit. Nothing underhanded about that.

To my British friends,

Congratulation to London and UK for being chosen as the town of the 2012's Olympics games! The British for sure did a great job...as usual!

I think the British are SO much better than the French when it comes to lobbying, more over they got the big support of the US and probably most European countries which seems right to me, as I don't see why Europe would have vote for Paris when the French people rejected the Constitution and Europe!

London and UK and Blair are the dynamic ones who are going forward unlike France, and London Olympic's project rebuilding the East End is truly a beautiful one.

If it was my decision anyways, the Olympic would always take place in Greece! After all Tour de France always take place in France!

BRAVO London!

Cheers,

Edouard

I have a bad feelin about this... i fear that we may only be hearing small parts of it at the moment.. already we have gone from power surges to 'explosions' and from maybe a bus to upto three buses...
