At least Yorkshire got a prominent mention on BBC Breakfast News for it's success at the games and that "someone" had worked out(as in SL recently) that if we were a country we'd be 10th in the medals league.Brownlee lads compete today as well.I'm off to t'shops in Morley......ttfn !

Really it should be the one on the A660 at Bramhope - but in reality it's likely to be a city centre one...I'm just trying to think where there is a prominently sited one nowadays. PS - on an Olympic theme, get a BA jet to taxi down your street: http://taxi.ba.com/

If not Bramhope I wonder if the post box in Leeds Station will do, as in this SL thread http://www.secretleeds.co.uk/forum/Mess ... eadID=4199
