Slightly Olympic-themed Image Challenge Vote
This week's challenge is awaiting the starter's pistol.
In the blocks:
* Sheds!
The world is about to go mad for the Olympics. By "the world" I mean "the media". Since the Olympics are obviously piss-boring, let's all photoshop sheds instead. Sheds doing the 1000m relay, sheds manning machine gun posts in the trenches of the Great War, sheds sweeping in majestic herds across the horizon, sheds on pogo sticks and sheds taking tents up the wrong'un.
* LOCOG after dark
What actually happens at the offices of the people who actively force kebab shops to change their names and small children to cry by inserting pins into their genitals, after they've finished doing Satans bidding?
* Postcards from Britain - pick your favourite location, say Birmingham, and make a tourist postcard suggesting foreigns would like to holiday here
* New uses for the Olympic torch
Place your bets here:

All it really does is connects North London to the Dome in a slightly different way. Fairly good view of the dull end of London.
However when winter comes it could be quite a sight in the evenings when it gets dark (it's bloody high up!), and maybe more interesting things will develop around the Northern terminal.

Infringement of the LOAR
The LOAR is infringed where a person makes a representation likely to suggest to the public that there is an ‘association’ (as discussed above) between the London Olympics and a person or the goods or services provided by a person in the course of trade.[8]
The 2006 Act sets out a list of listed expressions which a court “may take account of” when assessing whether an ‘association’ has been created.[9] The listed expressions are wide ranging and include seemingly innocuous terms such as ‘summer’ and ‘games’.
This s***** I intend to take a trip down to L***** to visit my friend. He has the world's largest collection of board g**** - 2*** of them, in fact!
