Yes, Yes, Yes I well, if it comes near where I live. One of the stop overs is Luton I'm a bit futher north so I hope that it comes through one of the towns or villages near me.

Yes it is a lot of money but it is a once in life time and we sould enjoy them. :-)

I would like to add that the facility that is being built at woolwich, for the shooting competitions will be torn down after the games. no lasting legacy there then....
there is much feeling amongst shooters that the money would have been better spent by doing something at Bisley in Surrey, where the " Run of the Mill" shooting championships are held....
