How can we get ready for 2012?
- Lay the foundation for two weeks' sick leave
- Pray it doesn't rain
- Make tea-drinking an Olympic sport
- Plug the gaping hole in the budget
- Build a separate London for the tourists
- Ensure Stratford isn't as late as Wembley was
- Make everyone forget how great Beijing 2008 was
- Start our own tacky-souvenir factories
- Prevent our taking the "plucky loser" mantle back
- Find a Brit to win Olympic gold while standing up
