LONDON 2012 OLYMPICS BUILD UP MEANS A LOT OF THINGS

It is not only animals who are normally on heat. 

Trees too. No, that is a joke.

Cars. Yes, that is true. Cars and machines heat up. And so do big towns.   Since 2005 when London was chosen to host 2012 Olympic Games – the fourth largest city in the world has been on fire.

Are you still watching?
