        Yep. There will be temporary campsites for the duration of the games with all the mod cons (showers, bars, tv etc.)

              Live in North London, and will see how it pans out.

              Mentioned in a nother thread that I tend to be early-ish, leave home 7 ish, in office by 7:45.

              Perhaps WFH, with laptop and a deck chair in the glorious sun, with a glass of Pimms and cucumber sandwiches, if the transport does get unbearable.

              Have a spare room going at £600 per week if anyone is interested.
              Never has a man been heard to say on his death bed that he wishes he'd spent more time in the office.

                I'm driving down in the car and sleeping in the back seat. It should be warm enough at that time of year

                      I'm having 3 weeks off. Commuting will be a nightmare so I'm not doing it.
