Six months after the Olympic Games were held in London, this plaque remains outside our local pub. The irony is that our local pub doesn't actually have a TV screen, so no live action celebrating would have been taking place. I notice a fair amount of Olympics advertising memorabilia dotted around town, particularly in newsagents. I liked the retro feel of the Coke advertising, which already felt nostalgic in it's look before the event had even happened - a case of pre nostalgia nostalgia, which must now be classed as retro pre nostalgia nostalgic nostagia. I think this plaque should remain as a permanent memorial.
