Presumably to tackle any attempt by the likes of Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong-un to arrive unexpectedly at the Olympics.

I see nothing wrong with being prepared.

A better strategy would be to clone Fatima Whitbread and make an army. No fucker would try it on - she's scary.

Also, Robert Mugabe is shit hot at the 100m Hurdles......

Sorry - i meant murdering white farmers. I always get hurdles / murdering white farmers confused.

Presumably to tackle any attempt by the likes of Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong-un to arrive unexpectedly at the Olympics.

And thereby, of course, making the residents of the blocks of flats potential targets of any terrorists.

Another example of all being in it together. :whistle:

And having recently been down in the (incredibly wet) west country, why do the matrix signs on all the roads have a message which essentially tells us to make our arrangements for the Olympics early and arrive in good time? Thanks - err, what about the road works on the A303 that you didn't bother to tell us about. :mad:

Interested to know if it's happening elsewhere too.

Any truth in the rumour that it's nothing to do with terrorists and is all about the IOC's obsession with protecting their commercial sponsors, so that there will be heat-seeking missiles targeted on anyone drinking Pepsi or eating a Whopper within 5k of the Olympic Park?
