In the Tech hub building? or whatever it is on the ground floor?

I'm down on Epworth Street, same as Jup.

Got a free ticket for the Gymnastics on Monday afternoon - O2 is a pain to get too from here though and no doubt the Jubilee line will be evil.

Mens Rings Final apparently

Womens Uneven bars Final

Mens Vault Final

Just next to it, the little door between it and what was Meter - 70-74 City Road. Funny coincidence. :p

Right here also. Not much of a coincidence given it's the techy area and we're all techies. Old St. by the Shell garage here :)

We're making a right fucking hash of this, medals-wise. At least we're beating Germany, I suppose.

Our boy Tom isn't doing too well in the synchro diving. Came 4th.
At least Jacque Rogge used the DLR. Traffic in London today was zero. Really quiet in town today.

I can't see FIFA's Lord Sith Blatter using public transport. Corrupt wanker. The entire FIFA board should be put on a yacht near Somalia.

I read somewhere that Daley has turned into a right playboy wanker, dicking about on a beach making that music video when he was supposed to be training for some diving competition or other. Fair play he has had a rough couple of years but you would've thought he would be in his prime at the moment.

I know there's two people in synchro but I never thought he would do well this time around. :(

Pretty sure you're not supposed to hold the other guy's hand when you dive off the board...

Do what you like but it's not F1, you don't get 25 points for a win. You get a medal, one at a time, and as it stands we have 0\1\1 for gold\silver\bronze and China have 8\4\2. We didn't do well in the swimming, Cavendish and his team were supposed to be nailed on for a gold in the cycling road race. It's not a good start, even if they salvage something from the games as a whole.

Hoping that everyone has stayed clear and won't just suddenly rush back in tomorrow because everyone thinks "oh, fuck it, it wasn't that bad really"

I don't get that? The Japanese got extra points due to appeal?

'OMG WE DID FAR BETTER THAN YOU SAID WE DID'

'Yeah, you did my bad'

Couldn't we appeal the appeal?

No. They appealed correctly.
