A question about : Money Moral Dilemma: I'm using my gym for free

I cancelled my gym membership in March because it was too expensive. But last month I tried to get in and I've now managed to use it several times for free. Should I keep schtum and keep using it? Or own up and start paying again?

A question about : I've got print at home tickets

We have tickets for the athletics next Monday.

I live in London within the travelcard zone. But apparently I need to pick up my free travelcard from the venue (Stratford). But I'll need to pay to get there!

My SIL is going to the cycling there tomorrow. Could she pick them up for me?

Or failing that, could I go pick them up at the weekend, either from Stratford or the one in Horseguards Parade? I know I'll have to pay, but I could combine the trip with something else.

Thanks

A question about : They can't give some tickets away!!

A relative who is a teacher in Glasgow tells me that schools in the west of Scotland have each been given 30 free tickets for the opening football matches at Hampden because they are not selling. The children have shown no interest at all!

It will be interesting to see how the TV coverage looks for these games when the stadium is going to be empty.

A question about : Olympic Ticket-royal mail redirect didn't work

I received an email and text yesterday to say that royal mail were unable to deliver my olympics tickets. Both messages said a card would be left by royal mail.
Went home, there was no card.
Called royal mail this morning. Royal mail delivered to my old address even though I set up a redirect.
If there was somebody home at the old address they would have my ticket.

A question about : Affordable Hotels during Olympics

Hi,

I have managed to buy tickets for the athletics in the presale last week, however I am now struggling to find affordable accommodation(and transport) for our trip. Even various holiday inn/premier inn hotels are Ј200-Ј300 per night.

Does anyone have any hints and tips or know of affordable accommodation available during the games?

Thanks!

Well, check out the BBC feature about this initiative!

Hope this is helpful!
