London 2012 - Will you go?

So the Olympics are back in London for the third time in 2012 (correct me if I'm wrong). The closest they've been to Ireland in a long time. I know it's only 2009 but there was a piece in the news there about it. They've made a train called the Javeline that travels in and out of the station.

Anyway, I've always been a big fan of the olympics. What's better than watching the best people in the world at some random event? From weight lifting to boxing to swimming, the olympics is good stuff. A nice break from watching soccer, football and rugby matchs 24/7 and nothing else.
So to get to the point, what do you think about the olympics, and will you go to 2012?

Loads of other things, milkshakes for example.

Probably not, but my father is into athletics and all that. Might be nice for him to go see.

Wouldn't mind watching the boxing and judo events though! Will see yet.

Watching it from the comfort of your own home while simultaniously watching porn on your pc/laptop
