scothunter 12,609 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 I know what you mean bird. But do you honestly think the rest of the uk will score out of it. I'll bet what this country spent for the games , won't even come close to balancing the books. However like I said its here. I'll support the uk as I always do. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Born Hunter 17,763 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 I don't pretend to really understand the 'bigger picture' with politics and business but I'm led to believe that it's the talks and deals that go on behind the scenes that will be the true economic benefit of the olympics. The Global Investment Conference and the like. Whether it really balances the books I couldn't say but it's an opportunity that is being taken full advantage of at least. Even if we are 2-3 billion out of pocket by the end of it all, I don't think that is too bad considering. Looking forward to this opening ceremony if it's as gob smacking as it's being made out to be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Frann 882 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Ive got to admit, Ive not been that excited by these games but reading about whats in store later, well I reckon more than a few Brits will be feeling the buzz if it all goes smoothly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scothunter 12,609 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Think they gave Danny Boyle to much power. Wasn't impressed, or maybe I just didn't get it. The advert playing on bbc with Londonderry calling, and the British airways jet was 20 times better lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
