After many fiascos trying to get tickets, failing but still getting offered them at 4 times face value every single day in the run up I was determined not to have anything to do with it. To see loads of empty spaces at events that I was desperate to go to isnt helping much either, I think it was all a scam and they had no intention of giving tickets to people who lived close enough to go home every night, just makes me angry and even less inclined to watch it ..............
but I failed though, enjoying everything so far from weightlifting, archery, diving to eventing (the missus made me watch it, OK?), forgotten how much I enjoy swimming as well. The only thing Ive not really got into is the football, and I think thats just a mental block knowing that its not going to be as good as what we get week in, week out, similarly with Basketball.
As for beach volleyball, why cant we watch that all the time, is there anything it hasnt got going for it?? The Czech team hasd my full attention for an hour last night ........... even when they were wearing clothes!!
