mammag replied: I've got mixed feelings. The only reason I don't think New York is because of the traffic.....

As far as the terrorist part, I think it would be a nice big slap on the face to them if we had it there and I would love to see it happen. I don't think we'll get it anyway though. The whole logistics of it is what I question.

mammag replied: Loooks like it's been narrowed down to Paris & London now. Everyone is expecting it to be Paris.

Josie83 replied:
I wa sjust about to post this update too, Jeanie. yep, looks like its between us and the french . . . am betting that it goes to the French too. It seems very political this whole argument, especially now us and the rench have been pitched against each other at the end. Like our two nations haven't been divided enough recently xx

mammag replied: Well.... it's London!!!!!!

I'm actually very happy about this! It shouldn't really matter to me but I'd much rather it go to our biggest ally if it's not here!!!

Josie83 replied:
Greatest aly England or greatest ally Josie?

Its exciting . . . xx

My brother works there and the poor guy took vacation time during the convention so he didn't have to spend half his day commuting.
