Advertising and trading are being regulated for three reasons, to ensure: the Games have a consistent look and feel across London and the UK; that Games sponsors are able to achieve appropriate brand exposure and are protected against ambush marketing; that spectators and those participating in the Games can access venues easily and safely.

Anyone still naive enough to think the Olympic Games anything to do with sport should have a look at the maps here, and perhaps also take a look at the consultation documents. Be careful not to carry the wrong sandwich or bottled water and be sure to choose your t-shirt logo carefully.

Latest news (from Jane)

Anselm was returned to the Intensive Care Unit on Thursday morning because he woke up a little disoriented and a CAT scan showed that fluid had filled the cavity from which the tumor was removed. The fluid is exerting some pressure on Anselm’s brain, and there was talk of a second surgery to suction it out, but after some discussion the doctors decided to raise his steroid dose to help alleviate swelling around the surgery site and monitor the situation carefully. If all goes well, the excess fluid will gradually dissipate as the swelling subsides. It is now Saturday evening and so far, so good.

Goodbye, and thanks.
