    It is always a case to celebrate when the French lose something:D

    I do feel bad for all the Portuguese immigrants...but London is not that far;)

    What :eek: I thought that Paris was the clear cut favourite :eek:

    BTW, maybe it had something to do with Chirac's comments over the weekend about Finland when they had 2 very crucial votes :p

    There are almost 1 million Portuguese living in France mainly in Paris! But there are also 100 000 or 200 000 living in London, so we will have support.

    They will probably go to North America as Africa is not yet ready...and Asia have the next one...too bad Brazil is not yet ready as that would be a true Party:D so we have:

    2008 Bejing
    2012 London
    2016 New York?

    So 2016 will probably have Toronto and New York bidding. New York this time (and probably next time) didn't have their stuff together they thought they were gonna win because "they're New York" Tornot won't get it because Vancouver has the Olympics in 2010 and we're not the U.S to have olympics so close to one another. So probably some other country will win. Toronto should try more for 2020 we would probably be a lock for that one (assumiong N.A doesn't get 2016)

    Paris should of had this one since they had pretty much everything set many new facilities already running but London is a pretty good choice.
