So, I am normally a gigantic cynic, but I can't help be excited about this! Listened to the result coming in on Radio 5 Live and was amazed when London was anounced. I cant help but feel slightly sorry for Jacques Chiraq - he now has to walk in to the G8 conference and face the full glare of Blair's grin turned up to 11.
Anyway - 2012 - The little un will be 8, which should be old enough to enjoy it. Its the kind of thing which doesnt come around very often so I have to promise myself now I'll get myself down and watch some of the action!
