Hello all.

Ouch, that picture of W makes me hurt! I hope his scrapes this time aren't as bad.

I think lots of Americans are more than a little thankful that we didn't get the Olympics. Warm congratulations to you snugs, but we're sort of glad to let the Brits deal with it this time around.

Hi ya I understand re the olympics but we have not had anything that major for years so it will be good for us and in particular for Kent. We will get the spin off benefits without having to pay for it. Londoners will have to pay via their local taxes whereas in Kent we will get extra jobs etc because a lot of the training facilities will be in our county.

It is rumoured that the athletics track in Ashford (The Julie Rose Stadium) will be used as one of the training facilities and that Canterbury will host training facilites for hockey.
