This is what we think about...

The Olympic Tickets

John G: I was upset the way the Olympic tickets were handled. They sold them to rich people and local people missed out. In my opinion SOCOG should refund all tickets so all sales are out in the open. That way every body knows what's going on.

Kevin:I am upset that SOCOG sold the Olympic tickets to the rich people who got the tickets in the first place. SOCOG boys got most of the tickets. I think that SOCOG should be accountable to parliament. My reason is the tickets were for the people to buy. The rich people have more money than the working people.

Davie: I was pleased to hear that SOCOG sent my mate tickets for the opening and closing ceremonies. I think that he was a lucky boy. So was his wife. A lot of people missed out.

Anne: I am very upset because the people who wanted to go to the Olympic games can't get there. I think that SOCOG should apologise. They should give up their tickets. My reason is they have been very sneaky.

Ansett flights at New Year

Lino: There won't be any flights on New Year's Day. Ansett says there aren't many bookings on that day, so they will suspend their flight activities for that day. I think that everybody wants to stay away from the airport and stay home for the event of the New Year The reason may be because the Millennium happens only once every thousand years. Why take the risk or have the nuisance of a flight which can be boring and tiring?

Crown Casino

John: It all depends what you like but I think the casino is a great place for an excursion. This is in the city at Southbank. You can get there by public transport or car. When you go shopping, eat at Kings Buffet or go to the cinema. You can watch the light show and see the chandelier drop down. The staff is very courteous. When you go home you are broke.
