The London Olympics...

[snags]

Will you go? If not, what events do you follow on tv?

I'll be following the track cycling, athletics and swimming... but mainly the track cycling...

Here's a pic of GB track cyclist Victoria Pendleton in action:

And here's a pic of 'Victoria' winning an award for something or other:

Here's one of 'Vicky' doing what she does best. Bless her, she looks absolutely exhausted:

un-synchronised swimming.............their cozzies are tight aren't they?

[funnygirl]

I will be watching the track and field events.
The ment wear tight shorts don't they!!!!

[ummmm]

[albaqwerty]

once watched beach volleyball played in the rain
looked like synchronised swimming

[craft1948]

oh and the mens' rowing 'cos they all look 'interesting when waiting for their medals.....

[snags]

They're introducing Men's Synchronised Swimming...

Hammer? Discus? Archery? I wouldn't bother... I could watch a bit of pole vault though...

[Barmaid]

I'm guessing if Vicky did sychronised swimming that would become part of your favs snags!!!

I'll be following the equestrian stuff.

[Jan1957]

Darts

[craft1948]

...and no I won't be going to watch it as London prices are a rip-off at the best of times so for the Olympics the hotel prices will be ridiculous, and that's before the £200.00 plus train fare to get there....

[snags]

Forgot about the rowing... I'll follow that too...

Gymnastics anyone? What about that 'prancing about with a bit of string on a stick'?

[mccfluff]

it was like a wet paint sign snags, what did you expect

[Barmaid]

I am considering renting my house out though - it being on a direct line to the Olympic village. Could make some wonga.

[TTG]

Footie, ladies beach volleyball :-p and some of the track events.

[craft1948]

no the rhythmic gymnastics don't do it for me either snags.......though I would PMSL at men doing it.....

[logic]

[Barmaid]

Yuck Logic. I'm guessing it would be a bit sweaty.
