I'm not sure which would be worse, me not spotting such obvious irony, or you not spotting that I'd got it and replying in similar style. So let's not worry about it.
I haven't seen recent figures, but last time I heard anything about it, it was costing *us* £1million a month for security for the Dome site, so that means on top of the umpteen gazillion it cost to build and run, since it closed (on the last day of the old Millenium if you're a pedant in the "Milleniums and Centuries start on Jan 1st xxx1" camp!) it's cost us around £70 million just to stop it being nicked by pikeys and travellers (that's topical sarcasm by the way, it would have been more likely to have been stolen (in bits) by local thieves, vandalised by the disaffected and disconnected London youth and trucked away in big chunks by larger more organised crime)
Every few months they announce another use for the dome (athletics or velodrome for the olympics, super casino, business park, business exhibition centre, music venue etc.) so I wouldn't be at all surprised to find that Prezza has balled it up again.
Gosh,really?
