London Olympics 2012

With the great festival just upon us children are being terrified when they arrive at Railway Stations by the booming  Great Buffoon of London, Boris de Pfeffel Johnson, over the Tannoys asking them not to travel at this time of heightened austerity. Not content with that the Fluff-headed  loon has brought out a video to welcome  the world to the London Olympics.
