So today marks a year before the start of the London 2012 Olympics, lots of documentaries on TV about the building of the site and preparations. All very interesting and I love a bit of Olympics me but, all this is just serving to wind me up....why? well because I didn't manage to get any blinking tickets. Come to think of it, out of all the people that I know that applied for tickets I only know 1 person who managed to get any (even then only for beach volley ball).
This bugs me, I mean whilst I didn't think I would get tickets for either the opening or closing ceremonies, I had hoped for tickets to the stadium for one of the minor track and field days and was really crossing my fingers that I'd get some velodrome tickets.
Sigh.....
I hope its like when buying concert tickets when they have sold out but all of a sudden closer to the event more become available.
At the very least I hope they have an area near the Olympic village where they will show the games. I know I can watch at home but I want to get some of the atmosphere.
I can take some solace in the fact that I can at least stand by the road for the road cycling / time trial events.
