Living in the greatest city in the world, whilst the greatest sporting event in the world is taking place means that olympics fever is infectious. Everywhere I look, I see some whimsical olympics pop up or creative outdoor space which has been set up in tribute to the most exciting 2 weeks of the leap year. Living in East London, I am lucky to have experienced some of the best, with my absolute favourite so far being the Puma Yard Jamaican Base Camp which has been set up on Brick Lane opposite the Truman Brewery. With a mini beach, photo booths, endless bars, mock sprint races, giant beanbags and performers such as Plan B and Groove Armada, this has got to be the coolest place in the world. After heading down with Baby M and my girl AA, we chilled in the sun drinking mojitos and watching the diving. Next week I'll be heading to the vegetarian pop up on Rivington Street, and then drifting by Victoria Park's BT Live festival. I am so spoilt for choice. I wish the Olympics would last 2 months instead of the inaugural 2 weeks. I love London 2012!
