[quote=BARONTWANGLE,311854]I am British, and I agree that London will be a big anticlimax after Beijing. If recent projects are anything to go by, the London Olympic planning will be way over budget, and behind schedule within a year. About a year before the opening, someone will decide that they are so over budget that they have no money to spend on an opening ceremony, and as a result we'll probably have an obscure member of the royal family cutting a ribbon to officially open the games, as a single firework gets lit somewhere over the stadium. London have already decided they are not going to do a torch relay. See - they are already finding ways to save money. The UK media have been dong their best to dampen the Beijing Olympics. The reason for this is because they know they need to play it down, and find every fault they can with it. So I think it is only fair for the rest of the world to laugh at the UK when it puts on a budget version in 4 years time. [/quote]
