Correct me if I am mistaken, but I heard a rumour there's some sort of sporting event taking place in London as we speak.

Starts with O, features the greatest athletes on the planet and is so big they can even convince David Beckham to leave his luxurious surrounds and ''slum'' it back in the Old Dart.
Nah, can't be right. Otherwise it would've been all over the back page of yesterday's paper.
Instead, a headline screaming ''We've got him'' above a photo of rampaging Wallabies captain David Pocock gave a hint there was a more pressing story in Canberra this weekend.
The ACT Brumbies stole the thunder from both the Olympics and the Canberra Raiders with their announcement that they'd secured the signature of the premier openside flanker in world rugby for the next three years. It's a recruiting coup rarely seen in a city which has learned the hard way the struggles of attracting elite professional footballers to the capital. Just look at the Raiders. They're often the pawn used to leverage extra dollars from Sydney clubs whenever a half-decent player is off contract.
Suddenly the player is linked through the media to the Raiders, and what do you know, within a few weeks he more often than not re-signs with his current club, with a couple of extra zeros on the end of the contract.
It's a similar story with the Brumbies. The majority of the club's great players have been sourced locally, and those who weren't were generally unwanted by the other Australian provinces.
Pocock's arrival has the potential to turn the tide and have the Brumbies in the market for the cream of the crop. Here is a player every club would love to have. Not just for he does on the field - stealing balls at the breakdown, clearing out the ruck, generally being a nuisance for the opposition - but his off-field persona makes him a sponsor's dream.
The 24-year-old helped create Eightytwenty Vision, a charitable foundation which helps underprivileged people in rural Zimbabwe, the country of his birth, and was named Western Australia's young Australian of the year for 2012.
He also took the unusual step of writing an open letter to Western Force fans on his Facebook page on Saturday, informing them of the reasons behind his decision to leave Perth. A class act indeed.
The Brumbies' title chances should rise substantially with Pocock smashing blokes on a regular basis.
But that's before remembering the man he's replacing, Michael Hooper, had an outstanding campaign and is the next in line behind Pocock in the Wallabies pecking order.
Expectations on the Brumbies will rise next season after they came so close to winning the Australian conference. Pocock has never featured in the play-offs in his six years of Super Rugby, but that's more down to his lack of support at the Force.
But like the effect the Olympics will have on London, this signing will have long-lasting effects the Brumbies will hope to capitalise on for years to come.
