You'll be able to bring an empty bottle and fill it up with tap water
inside the venues - tap water facilities will be provided. You'll also
be allowed to bring a reasonable amount of food.


But not baby milk. After the fuss about allowing babies in, you'd think
they'd have learnt that lesson.


I wonder if breast feeding is banned?


There is a level 4 fine (up to 2500 UKP) for anyone trying to stop it
at any of the events in Scotland.


But any babies being breast fed or on bottled milk wont have been born
when the ticket fiasco started - so they wont have tickets - in which
case they and their parents will not be present anyway.


Babies under 12 months old won't need tickets for most Olympics venues
as long as they are "securely strapped to the parent or carer by way
of a baby carrier, papoose or sling".
