2012 Olympics

[LondonTom]

I was looking at Women's GB vs Brazil match but I truly hate Wembley Staduim.

[fred quimby]

Isn't Millennium square stuff later today though. Sorry I haven't taken that much interest. Did go and see it though

as the kids wanted to.

[LondonTom]

The site is rubbish, look for tickets, select price band and event...then request stuck for 10 minutes while it reserves them to tell you there is none left >_>

I want my womens beach volleyball damnit! (and hockey, as I quite look like the look of the venue of whats left and don't fancy diving, would gone for swimming to )

there was defo some stuff last night, unless the TV companies were faking the pictures.

[LondonTom]

I give up trying get tickets, the site is shite....the initial offering seems to have no bearing on whats actually available...

[pryce]

my tickets turned out to be GB vs Argentina in the Hockey! result!

at least it will be a decent atmosphere

[Gre]

Well it took a bit of persistence - I think anyone who picked up £20 tickets for anything but football was very lucky - but this morning I picked up some

beach volleyball,

weightlifting,

basketball,

fencing

hockey,

to add to my previous

handball,

football at old trafford

football at wembley

athletics

Add to that blur & all the free stuff in Hyde Park (if you can still get in after everyone finishes work), and I am one happy camper!

[lost]

I picked up tickets for Spain vs Morroco at old trafford in the football a couple of weeks ago, 20 quid each. Two of my favourite countries when it comes to quality of women.

[pryce]

as well as Hockey i have Handball tickets .... got them through the draw somehow and both in a space of two days

will probs check out the Mens Road race cycling as well as its all on the same weekend

chuffed that ive got a GB game though in Hockey, especially as we are decent at it

[doogie]

I really don't get the Torch Relay.

However, I'm really looking forward to the Games themselves. I'm going to see:

- Athletics (including High Jump, Discus, 1500m and 100m Hurdles finals)

- Archery

- Womens' 10m Diving finals

- Mens' Artistic Gymnastics finals

- The Closing Ceremony concert (Blur/New Order/Specials) in Hyde Park

- The Paralympic Closing Ceremony (Coldplay)

I managed to get relatively cheap tickets for all these. Being a veteran of many Glastonbury ticket days stood me well :-)

[LondonTom]

Told you it was a shit system...

[pryce]

Torch just passed through Shrewsbury ... i only expected few hundred but there were thousands

very impressed by the turnout

wasnt going to see it but im glad i found the 5 minutes to muster up enough energy to watch it go by

[bunique]

Going to try and catch it tomoz but it's awkward times with work / child care... So might miss it . Little one is going to go see it with grandma though Doubt she will ever remember it but at least we can tell her she was there

[sifi]

£7.00 for a pint?

[Binky]

interesting selection choice here http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/olympics/18373483 world number 1 left out for world number 59 what is the point in that

[greenfairy43]

Yippee! My tickets arrived today!

[LondonTom]

I got mine at the weekend to WOO Go Team TB Womens Hockey!

[Yoghurt on a Stick]

I reckon I could just about muster up enough interest to see the 100m finals if I was given a free ticket. I really can see no fascination in it at all. Then again each to their own. I daresay lots of people wouldn't exactly agree with my idea of a recreational pastime.

[LondonTom]

Proms mosh pit?!

Heard people saying it had something to do with him not taking GB funding and going his own way... Or something to that effect...

I have two events on one day and they sent two lots of travel tickets for that day which was a bit dumb. Will flog them
