Amazing innit? The day after we win the bid ...the entire (yes I said the ENTIRE) London tube network has ground to a halt!
Bring on 20millions tourists!!
I'm not really in to sport that doesn't involve wheels and engines,but after experiencing the traffic chaos that ensued with the commonwealth games in Mcr(cut my deliveries in half,thus cutting my earnings in half)was just wondering what's going to happen with the congestion charge, and is jonny foreigner going to be exempt,,the capitals roads are bad/mad enough without all this,,I am only saying this because I know a few self employed couriers and hauliers who are barely keeping afloat as it is and I can't help thinking how many are going to lose their livelyhoods/homes etc due to the increase in traffic,and then have to pay for the privilege in their council tax,wether they approve of the olympics or not,,this doesn't mean I'm against the olympics,I think on the whole it's a good thing,but it does have far reaching implications and I shall keep my reservations until proven otherwise!!
I just tthink the British have a serious xenophobic attitude at times to their foreign neihbours and its a bit tiresome and really not good comedy now for the one about the Englishman,Scotsman and Welshman :lol:
