Well, we are lucky enough to be living in London now. Two weeks ago, we managed to get 2 tickets to the mens football at the Old Trafford in Manchester, so will take Virgin trains there from London. I read in the news today that they could not sell the womens football tickets for some reason!
I am going to try to ballot for the leftover tickets towards the end of May for events no one wants - even though it will be slim to none. Hubby said we will go to the unpopular ones to have a better chance of getting tickets to the events at the Olympic Park or a London venue.
We received an email from a friend living in Melbourne whom we knew for more than 30 years ago. He said he is coming to London for 3 weeks working as a volunteer with AOC (to help Australian athletics winning gold - hopefully). He said "do not be alarmed about accommodation" because he will be squatting with his nephew near Greenwich. I told him that "worst come to it, we will have a sofa for him!"
