Slog It Blog It, More on the Olympics, Ga Ga Land!

The London 2012 Olympic Village.

Athletes have begun arriving in the UK ahead of the London 2012 Olympic Games. Unbelievably the main park is still a construction site with less than two weeks to go until the opening ceremony. The latest embarrassment comes after yesterday it took the American team 4 hours to do a 45 minute journey after the coach driver got lost. However my sources at Molly Media have managed to get there and have a sneaky peak at the Olympic village and we can report that Ga Ga Land is taking shape nicely. There is a pub with free soft drinks (alcohol is banned) and helpful neon signs reminding you to cheer up and be happy. Motivational signs inside the pub say ‘Love & Laughter' and 'Live the Dream'. There is also a place where you can have all the free nosh you can eat, free massages, free hairdressers, and even free dental treatment if you want. That’s correct, as after all it is ‘Free Britain’! Victory Park in the Olympic Village will hold accommodation for the competing athletes and both winners and those who fail will get gold medals. That’s everyone a winner except us tax-payers.  There are 16,000 identical single beds which have ‘Excellence, Friendship, Respect’ printed on the duvets! There is an Olympic Village salon that will offer free beauty treatments night and day to all. It has recruited a team of manicurists who have been trained to paint the national flags of every single country on to ten fingernails in under half an hour. To be fair, Mr Mayor is doing his best to play it all down here in Ga Ga Land or wherever we call this soulless paradise behind the barricades. They better not forget to put up a sign saying ‘Real World This Way’ or we might find some athletes won’t want to leave.  No such worries in Blogville and don’t forget get your entries in for the Blogville Olympics before end of play.
