Like yourself I was there as a spectator but I did not have any privilege access like yourselves to what was happening during that whole month of festivities. There were one or two things I picked up which I think are pertinent. The first is on the transport. It was not just the investment they made but they also dropped prices, quite considerably, so most people used it quite happily. A similar thing happened in Athens.

I understand that Queen Mary College - which is a university round the corner from where I live and just down the road from Stratford - has made its student village - about 3,000 properties - available for the entirety of the Olympics.
