Just one week until we're hosts!

So in a weeks time Boris Johnson (Mayor of London) will be handed the Olympic Flag and we'll officialy be hosts!

1.5 Billion people will watch two 8-minute Dance & Music shows as soon as Boris accepts the Flag.. They'll be staged to represent the culture of Britain. Royal Opera House, CandoCo and Zoo Nation will stage the shows.

Sounds very good and exciting...

But, can anyone find details of times of this happening?

It is during the closing ceremony, so whenever that is :D David Beckham and Leona Lewis will also be involved apparantly :)

Is anyone else embarrassed we're going to have to display Boris Johnson as mayor of London in front of the world? Surely he can have a hair cut just this once!

Fuel prices arn't going to rise. I don't know where you've got that from..
The plan is for nearly every tourist or Olympic spectator to use public transport to get to the olympics... Hence why they're in negotiation to try and make transport in London free for the Olympics.
