OK, so we won this....
What a mistake!
I have particularly bad feelings about this because, as a band D' poll-tax (let's stick to calling it what it is!) payer, I now have to contribute £20.00 a year for the next 9 years for something I didn't want and something I firmly believe will fall into dis-repair as most of the world's other Olympic sites have done!
