I hear the dust storms on Mars have given a little if you fancy a break from the Olympics patti, i myself was thinking of sandboarding on the dunes there.

Ok, what flight do we take and how long will it take to get there? Do I need a packed lunch? Hahahaha Oh and shall I bring a flag?

Flight time about 2.5 years just take a thick pully can be a bit chilly at night.

Morning mertol  I would rather watch paint dry than watch the overated Olympics

[mertol22]

Good morning Susan, i would rather listen to Max Bygraves albums all day, and on that note im going out of town to a car boot sale starting at 12 noon at Torksey about 10 miles from Lincoln, have a nice day.

Another gold for the rowers.  I think the Olympics is fantastic.

So do I Roch....It's all about competition and I think it is wonderful that every 4 years the world comes together...Shame about the seating problem, this has let us down as hosts...It is certainly a social issue of them and us...which, sadly our government is getting bloody good at....causing a division of of three classes....lower, middle and upper class tickets...yet I believe all tickets should be the same price....to allow everyone the same choice...IMHO...

I havent really followed the seating fiasco.  I agree though, this government are pants.  Gideon Osbourne and 'Dave' are out of their depth.  Ed Balls would do a better job in my opinion.  But let's not get in to it eh!  It's the sport that counts now.  We do amazing events over here.  Just look at the royal wedding.  Ceremonial precision of the highest spec.  These Olympics are gonna be amazing....  Let's hope the sun has got his hat on for the remainder

Another gold coming up!!

Another gold coming up!!

They couldn't quite believe it.  I'll be in tears at this rate
