    I'm not. London has, unfortunately, become an armed camp. The pure joy, purity, and innocence of it have been lost a long time ago.

      To have to defend the games with rocket launchers is, sadly, necessary but not in keeping with the Olympic spirit. Also, some athletes use drugs and hope and pray they don't get caught. A few do, and this also saddens me. Cheating in sports, in busin

    I'm looking forward to visiting London this summer, but leaving before the Olympics get started.  It's much more pleasant and less expensive that way.

    The Olympics always interests me as i am a keen sports enthusiast, Many of the Sports i watch so no doubt will be following as much as possible! There is always record breaking achievements, incredible stories and so many wonderful athletes from all over the globe in one place, the best of the best. I have been to the Special Olympics here in Dublin some yrs ago which was a truly inspiring experience.

    I am definitely looking forward to the Olympics. Especially the Men's swimming competitions. The USA should dominate Men's swimming.
