Originally posted by Mich the Tester View PostI rather like athletics, having competed in my youth in the throwing events. Athletics does also have the advantage of very skimpily dressed young ladies who like to indulge in healthy physical activities. Tennis though; I can sympathize because it's boring tulipe, even if the birds are alright.
As for Dancing; no point in that unless you get a shag at the end.

I for one am not surprised at this incompetence from India. Some fly overs have taken more than 12 years to build.
Infrastructure development in India is mired in corruption and low quality. When the money for a project finally reaches the end contractor it would have passed through 10 different parties who all have helped themselves to a percentage. This has all come out in the open because the arrogant Indian govt claimed that the Games Village would be better than Beijing olympics village. This coupled with the Indian media itself frustrated with the corrupt practices.

If the games get cancelled the missus might not want to watch athletics morning, noon and night. I have just been through umpteen weeks of frigging tennis with the US Open and the Davis Cup.
AND it's a news series of Come Dancing soon. Has the coalition changed the law to allow justifiable homicide yet?

"The teams shouldn't get too precious about their accommodation. Moaning about bad plumbing whilst most Indians don't have access to clean water supplies, yet alone sewage, is grotesque. Teams should fly out and offer to help sweep up the rubble in the athletes village rather than issue threats about not turning up." - Guardian

No specification for strength of bridge; you no say people go walk over it.

Tricky buggers.
