Going to the Olympics ?

[BertiWooster]

Did you get allocated any tickets ?

If not - dont feel too bad -Your'e in good company - Mayor Boris did not get any either .

Actually, perhaps you should cry in your beer - cos lets face it , he's bound to make a few phone calls and hey presto

[Gromit]

He won't be allowed to miss wiff waff coming home.

[MarkRae]

Yes,

[jno]

Of course Boris will go - in his official position; he'll have to hand over the flame at the closing ceremony. I applied for four tickets, got two, so that's pretty good.

[BayBoy1]

I would have expected Wurzal Gummage to have had his own special box at the games ???

[woofgang]

Didn't apply for any...would pay not to go.

[BertiWooster]

Quite jno - i do know that .

My comments were from the aspect - as it would appear - of a private application for tickets
which he made ; evidenced by the pi**ed of look on his face and sound of disapointment , when he appeared on the the telly last night .

[dave50]

I wouldn't go if you paid me.

[BertiWooster]

Would you go, if I didn't pay you ?

[Zeuhl]

Well let's think about that.

I'm not a big sports fan but...

It's one of the major global events of our lifetimes and it's happening in our country, on our doorstep.

Do I want an experience of that? Hell yeah.

[joggerjayne]

Dave ...

I'll give you £200 plus your travel expenses if you come to the Olympics with me.

[joggerjayne]

(I didn't get any tickets, but Dave might not know that)

[Zeuhl]

jayne

have you got that job again standing in front of the javelin throwers?

[redman41]

I will watch a fair bit of it on TV like most of us will have to, cannot afford any Tickets.

[what..the?]

I applied for 4 tickets totalling £180 but got nothing

[joggerjayne]

redman ... even if you could afford them, you probably wouldn't have got them.

[jno]

of course he would have. The righteous get tickets.

I'm like Zeuhl, not a major sports fan (though I have a strange passion for cricket), but I'd like to be a small part of this.

[redman41]

Very true JJ !

[LDC134]

I have had some money taken, does anyone know whether it's all being done in one 'lot' or by event ? I applied for several different events and am not sure if I have only got one event or one event 'so far' ?
Thanks

I applied twice, from the same bank account, under different email addresses, as once you'd applied you couldn't add more. They've taken "an amount" but it doesn't match any individual part of my application. Can't wait til 24th to see what I've got, it's like Christmas, except I've bought my own prezzy!
