Re: olympic games 2012
I'm not a big Olympics fan, but watching Beach Volleyball Live for £20 is definitely swaying my opinion. Knowing my luck I'd end up getting tickets for the mens event...

Re: olympic games 2012
As some of you may possibly be aware, houses & flats in the vicinity of Wimbledon are made available for rent during the Tennis fortnight for anywhere between £10,000-£50,000pw rent.
For the special occasion of the Olympic Games, similar prices are on offer in the East End. I have therefore decided to sacrifice my own experience of this once in a lifetime event to make my own accommodation available.
My flat is on offer for the marvellous sum of £10,000pds pw.
But on top of this, I am prepared to make it available to any members of Accy Web at the discounted price of £7,500pds. (O.N.O.)
Sight unseen.
Cash up front.
Offers expire midnight tonight

Not a chance.
Wimbledon in leafy south west London, with it's many commons, fine shops, and genteel people, is rightly seen as a desirable location, and can therefore ask for high renumeration, for those wishing to stay there.
I have visited the areas you speak of, doing voluntary work in a mobile soup kitchen.
I always came away thinking that Jack the Ripper's victims had perhaps been the lucky ones.
Good luck in your quest to better your circumstances. Though I fear Boris Johnson has more chance of winning Olympic gold in gymnastics.

Re: olympic games 2012
I was asked to contact you re: accommodation by the Hyndburn Parkinson's disease egg and spoon race relay team.
However, on discovering the woeful civic celebrations planned in Tower Hamlets, to celebrate the royal wedding, they've decided to stay in Bushey, and get the train in.
