I may have got the figures mixed up

Absolutely - if companies want to promote themselves on CF we have very attractive advertising rates.

If they don't want to pay then they will be dealt with

I might add ... There is enough information in the last dozen posts of this thread for anyone who can be bothered to work out her name, her employer's name and how to contact them and tell them what they think about digital design agencies that fake third-party endorsement of their apps on discussion forums whose rules explicitly forbid it.

Lets hope all our boys at the Olympics are been treated to the same days out as my Nephew? As they all deserve it.

Yes, you really are the Dog's.

You weren't within a country mile though.

Oh look, I quoted your latest ill-advised post before you deleted it. Shame.

not that it's a bad thing. but you can clearly see that they had to physically go out there and hand pick them if you like.

I'm not bothered either way. but you have to wonder whether it's sort of patronising to those who are hand picked.

With regards to the black and white couple. that was obviously a concious decision. which really imho was a bit pathetic.

I replied on that page and here is the gyst of what I posted.

I live in leicester which is a multi cultural area, many races living in one area which is fine.

However when I leave leics I do notice just about everyone I see is white, so I also know leics is not representative of the country as a whole. Also even in leicester I rarely see mixed race couples. So yes some people are racist, but also that the bbc are noticebly trying too hard to support mixed races.

Exactly the point I was making

A whole set of buildings in the Athletes village that will be used as flats by Londoners after the Olympics have long closed..2,818 new homes.all with parks with improved transport system.
Plus a whole lot more..

Why don't you actually do some damned research?

Or is it just that you can't put your preconceived prejudices to one side.

Oh and remember these games were sought and gained under a Labour Government and completed by a Coalition government so scoring political points is pretty meaningless.

your the one who has just brought politics into it. I just said I feel its a waste of money.

The problem with all that you listed is its all spent in london. What has been built and so forth will not be permanent, and there is football clubs currently fighting over the olympic stadium.
