London 2012: The great Olympics sponsorship bandwagon
A florist that put up Olympic rings made of tissue paper was told to take them down.
The University of Derby was reportedly forced to take down a banner that read "supporting the London Olympics".
And last month, Birmingham Royal Ballet's artist director David Bintley was ordered to change the name of his latest production from "Faster, Higher, Stronger" - the Olympic motto - to "Faster".
It's a bit much, isn't it? What else aren't we allowed to do?
I've a good mind to mow Olympic circles on our village green. Or, I know, paint them on Seb Coe's Mercedes (if I knew where he lived).
