Slog It Blog It, Olympic Road Wars!


London 2012 Olympic Road Wars!

London 2012 Olympic Road Wars!


Olympic Lanes have appeared all over London, reserved for athletes, officials and sponsors. Regular drivers are not permitted to use them. However the new signs have left the capital's drivers confused by the contradictory messaging. We have no idea which lane we are supposed to be using! This is the new junction in Russell Square where two lanes merge leading to one of the Olympic Lanes. You are supposed to stop where the arrows meet as you can't use either the bus lane or the Olympic lane! Does it mean you may collide at the end of the white hatchings? Do you tip toe along the white line in the middle or just like Evil Knievil do you go up on two wheels and keep on the centre line? Is this the Olympic version of the Hadron Collider, trying to create smaller and smaller vehicles by forcing them together at high speed. This is obviously a new Olympic sport!

'Share It Sunday’ will resume next week! In the meantime it’s The Blogville Olympics!!!!!

    Mum never fails to be perplexed by the array of confusing road markings that are always springing up to 'help' motorists.
    She would go into meltdown if she had to negotiate this!

    Wow, holy Molly. You entered every single event? You are an amazing athlete. I am trying to get piggies to enter as many events as possible. Hehe, I even went to the neighbour to borrow a Canadian flag. Haha. Cos I only have a Union Jack towel and an American star and stripes tie. No Canadian flag yet. Shame on me.

    Should I be glad that I am not in London for the Olympics or not? Some days I miss London.

    I'll be back,

    MOM said she would just park the Blazer and find a nice bar/pub to wait the whole thing out. I sure am glad the blogville Olympics don't have such foolishness.
    Blessings,

    Molly , I've thrown a six so can I move the Bently six spaces and do I get to throw again? Might be a long trip. But not as long as it took the Americans and Australians to get to the Olympic Village, 4 HOURS!!!!!!!

    Pippinpumpkin at least you throw a 6, not so for our American and Aussie friends , it took them 4 hours to reach the Olympic Village, guess they must have thrown 1's all the way!
