Weren't we suppose to get the swimming events? and that was the reason for the pool at the SOL and for the Olympic village on the old sheepfolds site?

 

[Flavonoids]

How many times have you seen the Olympic Torch relay?

He should take some time off work to make sure he gets a good spot to see it, the torch.

No

It's london 2012.

 

[Teed]

No

So why were they planning to build an Olympic village at the Sheepfolds? was that a different Olympics? or have I got the wrong end of the stick?

Kid over the road lost an arm and both his legs from meningitis and he will be doing a mile.

I will pop along to see him do it.

I like the Olympics and the torch and shit. It has been overtaken by big money etc etc but for most of the events, it's young people dedicating their lives to being the best in the world.

I won't watch that much but I think it makes the world a slightly better place.

Will be there around 11:30pm on the Saturday
Can't be advertised ATM due to potential crowd congestion

What date is this?

 

[spitfire]

Reet then this torch has 70 days of madness and thousands of miles to negotiate on its way to Stratford. Surely you would need a canny sized propane cylinder to keep it going. How do they keep it alight/refuel it?

 

[Deleted User 11453]

Who'd have thunk it hey?

Thousands of blokes (including wor grandad for 50 years) toiled away underground at Herrington colliery and it's now a poncey country la-de-da park holding festivals and Olympic events.

Bring back the pit heaps!

Bring back heavy industry!

COAL NOT DOLE!

Coal is the FUTURE!

I bet there's loads of Mag tops on show that day. All of the 'Geordies' from Penshaw and Shiney Row will be in attendance.
