The rise of the Golden City

I have been very fortunate over the past few years to be present at a number of great events: Chelsea winning the Champions League, the last ever gig by The Jam, Sussex winning the County Championship for the first time in their history, Slim Gaillard at the Wag Club, the Two-Tone tour, England bowling Australia out for 98 at the Boxing Day Test 2010 and the time when Barry at The Old Coffee House undercharged me.

However, the two and a bit weeks that London hosted the Olympics most probably go down as the most enjoyable fortnight I've most probably ever had. The cynics had left town, the whingers had shut up and everyone else was just up for it.

London was everything we've always known it could be! It was perfect!
