    I keep having to resist the urge to drop 300 quid on tickets for a big athletics event

    Yep - I was close earlier, but I keep telling myself that Saturday evening is unlikely to be bettered as a chance to see British track and field glory in the form of Ennis and Farah so won't pay more than I already have. Feel very lucky.

    Rothko just do it, it is probably the only time it will be here and it is fantastic, the volunteers and army were brilliant all day not sure there were any non-army staff in the security areas. I will be on the look out all next week.

    cannot justify paying 300 quid for 2.5 hrs of watching running and someone jumping in sand.

    some people on here moan about 30 quid for a matchday ticket!

    Yes but the £20 athletics tickets for tomorrow were as I stated. I have the brochure :-)

    I've been stuck on 15 minutes or longer for the last 10 mins... driving me mad.

    If I don't get tickets, planning on doing a pub crawl around all the nations "houses" one day next week.

    Been up to a few of the venues just to soak up the atmosphere.... loving the olympic fever. I was a volunteer in Whistler for the winter Olympics a couple of years ago, but this is something special.

    How can it take a computer ticketing system 30 minutes to look for a ticket??

    Utterly useless

    Well it's got to search all the cupboards & nooks & crannies, you just know where they've all been hidden.
