Olympian positivity

What do I like about the Olympics? The fact that it is in London, the medal league tables (some people tell me I am highly competitive), the copious amounts of sport on every TV channel known to man? Nope, what I like is that news coverage is invariably more positive and upbeat than at any other time in the (four) year (period). It seems like stories of bombings, killings, floods and economic crises have to work that bit harder to steal some of the limelight. If it didn’t take 9 billion pounds and 7 years to plan the 2 week festival of sport, then I’d vote to do it on a monthly basis.
