2012 Olympics here we come!

Save us a seat!


We have 2012 Olympic tickets! My application was one of the lucky ones who got randomly chosen by the Olympic ticket chooser-machine-computer-thingy-whatever and Mat and I are either off to see the Judo or the Field Hockey competition. Confirmation will be made at the end of this month.


Not exactly the glamour sports but having had a conversation with someone who had experience of applying for tickets to the Sydney 2000 Olympics, we were advised to go for the least popular events to boost our chances of getting tickets. And I refuse to pay silly money - bankruptcy is never a good look!


Still not quite sure how it is all allocated but I am pleased that we will be there for a once in a lifetime experience. And we found out that the Olympic Cycling Road Race route will go past outside where we live so we can be there waving our flags and cheering on the cyclists - and it is all free!


All very exciting and something else to look forward to in 2012...
