Nonsense, I'm Ouse-ing with anticipation for the Olympics.

[Whitey Grandad]

Anyone Itchen for them to start?

 

 

Thought not ☹️

[Kingsland Codger]

The events will certainly Test the security services 

[Jeremy Corbyn]

Heading over on Wednesday for a week.  Looking forward to it though sounds like security is going to be intense.

Well, Thames are a-changing.

I will be disappointed if the opening ceremony doesn’t contain many Frenchmen on bicycles in Breton shirts and berets carrying large amounts of onions.

Don't think of it as disappointment. Just think of how much more you'll enjoy the Baguette Bicycle Jousting Event, knowing they are free from injury. 🙂

Then a couple of days at Disneyland, followed by a trek around Bavaria.

[Weston Super Saint]

What a fucking storm in a teacup. Modern fucking news. Wow we all can’t wait to see video that is incredibly boring. I didn’t watch with any audio but even if she said ‘take that you cunt’ not sure I would raise an eyebrow

Isn't it a bit "cart before the horse" for some Olympic events to have already started ?

Don't worry. We're only Teesing. 

I expect we'll grow Wear-y of it sooner or Leater.

I hope so. Anyone not keen on puns will be in a state of Dee-spair reading this thread.

[whelk]

The security will be a real Test. Plenty just Itchen at the chance to disrupt the games.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

They could always hire Blackwater to handle security.

It's good to bring an Ayr of fun to the board.

This thread looks like it is heading down the Po.

Then again, perhaps we should Sava it whilst we can.
