Ok, so who's doing what during the Games? Cheering in front of the TV? In the pub? Wondering if you'd get to the venue in time with the imminent transport collapse? Have rented out own house and went to Spain for a month? Not bothered at all? Let's share!

I'll be in Thailand and possibly India during the Olympics, scanning the news occasionally to read about all the immigration queues and transport debacle. On a more serious note, I'm a little concerned about the possibility of terrorism to be honest. Let's all hope it goes smoothly for all those that are there, especially the security forces.

North Korea?

Are we allowing nationals from this degenerate regime into our country?

I'm surprised North Korea is letting their sportsmen and supporters leave the country in the first place, to be exposed to the unsafe and corrupt western world. To your question, yes the UK maintains diplomatic relations with North Korea (http://www.fco.gov.uk/en/travel-and-living-abroad/travel-advice-by-country/country-profile/asia-oceania/north-korea?profile=all) since 2000.

Will probably watch the opening then some of the footy, really not that fussed to be honest.

I have a feeling the media will be pushing for us to be bothered!
