which did?
i think its really sad for the poor in france, who are selling t-shirts on roadsides etc. etc.
I think the Kelly holmes picture just sums up my emotions! and the emotions of *most* of britain, although some grouches say 'itll cost too much money'

@EastCoastStar
Cities that want to host the olympics start to get their campains together well in advance of the dicision, it takes a good 4 or 5 years of planning, publicising, finding sponsers and funding sources, presentations etc. The Olympic Committee decide on the winning City about 7-8 years before the event, so for 2016 the decision will be made in about 2008-2009.
