Oh dear for London

Please excuse me if you think otherwise but the London 2012 Uniforms are horrendous. Supposedly inspired by the historic Grenadier Guards this uniform encompasses nothing of the rich, bold, historic values that the Guards hold. And I know what you may be thinking, it's only a tracksuit, but what's worse still is trying to make that tracksuit represent such an important historic element of British history. It's simply a tragic formula.


I assumed this image was a joke, but unfortunately not. Embarrassing rubbish - is this really the best we could come up with? Still, I guess at least this will give the rest of the world a good laugh even if it is at our expense.

 I'm still confused by the photo. How does a disabled man, Indian middle aged woman, African and two unattractive females represent this beautiful country we live in. Surely there are more willing young individuals out there who could replace this 'claimed off the street' rubbish.

China obviously got the right formula, combining elements of their rich traditions with a modern twist. It gave us a feeling of excitement and made me look forward to the games. Who cared about the controversy in the building of the Bird's Nest, the games began fantastically and ended likewise.

What designers dared venture to the board meetings with these designs? And who were the morons who accepted this shamble of alien mutants. Nobody loves them, making London 2012 less welcoming.

When these mascots are unveiled at our national opening ceremony I will close my eyes and weep as the whole world laughs at us.
