God, it won't be long now before the police arrest you for having a barbecue in your back garden instead of buying a Big Mac...

You said it here first! The state and big business working together in this way is also known as fascism.

Haha. When the games start in going to buy ten bags of chips from a shop somewhere then stand outside McDonald's asking everyone that passes if they want a chip and to take as many as they like. I'm not selling them so technically I'm not doing anything wrong

Saying that they'll probably hire a sniper to take me out.

Im probably going to prison then. I walked past 24 hour Spar earlier with crisps from Tesco's. I guess they're going to sue me for bringing my own pack from the house instead of purchasing them from there.

See you after my stretch guys.

You can't even buy tickets unless you pay by Visa.
I always thought that Seb Coe was a wrong 'un.
