Alright everybody, that's the Jubilee done and dusted, so let's hear it for the London Olympiczzz - the games by the people for the people .. as long as you're wadded and completely stupid!! Check out these event posters in my local travel agents. Just look at the prices! £299! £449!! .. £849!!! That's how much it's going to cost for ONE person to get ONE ticket for ONE event with ONE night's B+B in a hotel in London! Holy swear words!! Are they having a laugh? Who the hell is going to pay those kinds of prices? (And if it's you .. keep quiet!) All those rings in the Olympic symbol? They're the noughts after the prices now that everyone's a finalist in the 100 metres rip-offs. And the torch? We might as well let Coca-Cola staff and blokes with silly names like Will.I.Am carry it, taking the place of hard-working, deserving British people. Oh, they've already done that! Bloody hell, it's no wonder we 'Up North' feel so disconnected from the games. Even the name is enough to p*ss you off - The London Olympiczzz! Well, quite frankly, you can have 'em, London! I've never felt so disinterested in a sporting event in my life - well, apart from every cricket match ever! Oh, one more thing... those event prices don't include travel!
