The expected fallow year moved on a year, not 2012 canceled.
The decision was made at least 18 months ago and it was made public-ish last year in a Q&A session at the festival.
It was explained there was expected to be a price hike for those and other facilities in 2012, so they said no thank-you to that, we'll make 2012 a fallow year instead.
Not a story

The last sentance says ‘My wife and I haven’t had a holiday for years, so we’re going to drive around the UK in our Mini and visit London in the summer for the Olympics,’. Has he remarried since his wife died or does this show what a load of crap this story is?

biki, on 17 October 2010 - 12:05 PM, said:He remarried several years ago....think his 3rd wife's name is Liz? So this is actually one of the few occasions when the Mail has told the truth about something!The last sentance says ‘My wife and I haven’t had a holiday for years, so we’re going to drive around the UK in our Mini and visit London in the summer for the Olympics,’. Has he remarried since his wife died or does this show what a load of crap this story is?

There was always going to be a gap year, the Olympics just made the decision easier as to when that would be and most of us knew it would be 2012 back in 2009. make no mistake the Olympics will be huge with knock on effects for the whole country. I for one will be going to Olympic footy at the Ricoh Arena and Eventing, cant wait. The Mail needed some news for a Sunday I suppose.

Wait.. the Daily Mail recycled a year old story? Well I never!
I guess they needed to get their annual Glasto Port-a-loo story in somewhere

Not that I'm one to defend the Daily Mail but remember the old expression 'That's news to me.' Maybe the story selectors at the Mail knew no better or maybe they thought that what we've all known for a long while would be news to their readers.
Sounds like a good overtime and expenses number for the thousands of police who'll be drafted in for the Olympics. Cost that Daily Mail and you could have another story.

Brilliant. I love the readers comments at the end. Its amazing how so many people can be filled with so much hatred for anything outside their normal life. Proper idiots
