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.

One of the major Olympic training facilities for the U.S.
is here in San Diego.
Also in the 1984 Olympics most of the Horse competiton
was here in S.D. Prince Phillip and Princess Ann was
her to check things out.
