Ooh Ooh can I bunk with you, I love cycling, me and mum have been infront of the Tour de France since sunday, only one complaint about the Team Time Trial yesterday, why did the cameraman have to keep his camera at Groin level in the starting blocks, I spilt my tea twice, some of those lads are very well built

Escpecially the German's

To all Gaters from the United Kingdom,

I'd like to congrat you for winning the competition for the 2012 Olympic Games.

[Caro]

I'm very disappointed that Paris did not win *sobs* but congratulations, fellow british gaters, you did great !

And London is not that far, the Olympics will be a great occasion to visit that beautiful city

[Madeleine]

I'm well chuffed. Especially as my sport - Judo - isn't hugely popular in England, so I reckon I'll have a good chance of getting tickets to see some of the contests.

But I'd thought that it would be paid for out of London's tax, not the UK's tax.

Judo's getting quite popular in Scotland...you should come up and visit us!

Don't know if any of you have seen this before, but it sure made me laugh:

That appeals to my warped sense of humour

[Egeria]

^^ Brilliant! Got giggles from my kids.

[oragans]

That was pretty funny.

Congrats to London ! Of course I would have loved if it had been Paris but London is not so far away

I just have one thing to add, after that I've read the latest posts. Let's not forget the 1st Olympic rule : "l'essentiel c'est de participer". I don't know how to translate this in english so I'll just say one word : fairplay

Florence you are quite right. I apologise if any of my comments in the thread are offensive to you, no offense is intended. *waves across the channel to you*
