There are going to be some fantastic then and now shots available in
that case. So are all the Olympic crowds supposed to arrive from
Stratford? West Ham station not so far away either.


Stratford, Stratford International, and walk from West Ham (there must
be a new path built for that - currently it is a pain to get through).


I think the route is going to be along the 'green way' - above the northern
interceptor sewer...

I also hope they will clean all the stinky canals :-)
They are especially smelly in the summer...


I reckon its the tidal parts behind Three Mills that are the worst, but all
the piled river channels are going to kept full by a new semi tidal barrier
and lock somewhere - the tabloids had a go at it being called Prescott Lock,
as if it were named after the punchy politico of the same name, but of
course they were talking c**p as usual...

I wonder what their going to do about the smell coming up from the
sewer on the Greenway, a bit of a bad introduction to the stadium.
They cant blame it all on Paula Radcliffe having run along there.
