W. JONES (23 March 2013) is of course right. Money can

always be found when it is needed.

I would however like to add another gripe of my

own, and that is the money which is being spent on the

Olympic Games. If we are as hard up as we are supposed

to be, wouldn't it be a better idea not to have the games

in the first place?

On one hand we are living in a world of dimmed

lights, closed public toilets and cuts in all directions,

whilst on the other hand there is this enormous waste of

public money.

How is it possible to be living on two planets at the

same time?
