No, no, I'm chuffed. The alternative (Paris) was just too horrible to contemplate. It's a shame that all the money will be spent on London, which IMHO already sucks up too much of the UK's resources, but in this case they get the all minuses to go with it. Meanwhile us northerners can just catch a train, be there in a couple hours and (more importantly) go home again afterwards! I'll be getting a ticket for *something* just to say I've been to an Olympics - so you say Stefan will be winning the tennis, eh? :-) Chris
