Road to 2012

I am so bored with the Establishment trying to whip up excitement for the London 2012 Olympic Games. As for that farce the Cultural Olympiad, I haven't glimpsed one event that gives me the urge to attend. Today the National Portrait Gallery opened its latest effort Road to 2012: Changing Pace, an exhibition of uninspiring photos by Finlay MacKay and Emma Hardy which drags on until 25 September (title link). The one good thing about it is that admission is free. So, if you have cherubs bursting with enthusiasm for the Games, it won't cost you an arm and a leg to take them to the show. The photo is of Chris Holmes by Emma Hardy.
