Hey Jeff, not long now until the Olympics begin. Excited?
Oh yeah, should be amazing.- London's going to be crazy for a couple of weeks, but it'll be worth it.
- Hopefully the atmosphere will be great.
- I managed to get tickets for days two and three, so I should get to see the decathalon and the archery.
- I wish I could have seen the 1500 metres final though. That would have been brilliant.
- I know!
- I think Fleming has a decent chance of a gold medal this time.
- With a bit of luck.
- I really hope he gets it. He deserves it after what happened last time in Beijing.
- Yeah. I applied for tickets for the final day too,
- but I don't know if I'll get them or not. It wouldn't surprise me if they're sold out by now.
- Possibly.
- I'm really keeping my fingers crossed I get them though.
- I'd love to see the 100 metres final.
- That would be amazing!
- I wish I could see the closing ceremony too. Should be plenty of fireworks.
- Well, we'll have to wait and see.
