Grassmarket 3,448 Posted July 14, 2020 #5991 Share Posted July 14, 2020 French most want to go to Belgium. At least they are being realistic. Will be a mess if they all turn up at once. We Belgians all want to go to the UAE, but cannot even go to Luxembourg! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympian1010 7,989 Posted July 14, 2020 #5994 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Tried to read another Games Bids Ceremony thread. This time for London 2012. I couldn’t even make it to the rings reveal because of how toxic that thread was. Someone literally wrote “I’m bored” midway through Pandemonium ? “Sport has the power to change the world.

Going through nearly 6000 opening ceremony posts on the main Dutch forum (only place I was active at the time) was a bit much, but a quick scan did reveal a post of myself saying something like "finally" and judging by the surrounding posts, that must (not surprisingly) have been when the parade of nations started .

phelps 7,706 Posted July 14, 2020 #5998 Share Posted July 14, 2020 by the way, there's no chance Maldives is the main vacation destination for Italy (even as a dream destination...here all the people below 45/50 dream about Ibiza and/or Mykonos......those over 50, instead, normally dream about staying at home without their sons/daughters trolling around and their boss harassing them )... we usually go to Spain, Greece and/or Croatia mainly...most Italians can't even afford to go to Maldives...even in offseason (especially now, after the covid-19 disaster, with many people losing their job or having their salary partially cut)...
