Just a word of encouragement to everyone who is trying for tickets. I also got tickets for the athletics - can't quite believe it. Tried so many times over the last couple of days and had no luck. Didn't even go in a queue this time and didn't go for expensive tickets..

Yeah i've been in numerous queues every day this week 15+ minutes that becomes 30+ in reality. Really frustrating.

I think we're going to get into waterloo for around 7-7.30. Paranoid maybe but rather be early than late.

Keep trying folks, I really didn't expect to get anything.

I would however be hugely dissapointed if the seating is on the other side of the Stadium away from the 100m final.

Even though i managed to get these two tickets i still think the ticketing system is a complete shambles! What happened to it being 'Everyone's games' ....i feel its only for the lucky/rich to have tickets for the Olympics now! .....and dont get me started on the food / drink prices around the Olympics!

You can see the seat's you've been allocated and check the seating plan before you do the payment. You can check now by logging into your account

Well I'll eat my hat, dog, cat etc. for all my moans earlier on this forum and cynicism about it all... with dogged determination you can get what you want! I managed to get 2 tickets for tomorrow mornings athletics!! All day on iphone at work ... usual feeling of deflation at the 'no tickets available' notice every time i was lucky enough for countdown search for tickets.... just happened ot notice this evening about an hour ago that tickets back on site, didn't even clock they were for tomorrow morning, applied and .... 3 mins wait, hey presto!

Now frantically working out hows and wherefores on getting there to pick up tickets from collection point, which I am presuming is just at entrance to Olympic park??

Wowser!

There is a map showing where the box offices are- on their website. There is on by Stratford station although they advise against using the actual tube station- will see you there !!

Well done. How much did you pay?

PS The box office is a portakabin with 3(!) windows at the edge of the olympic park, about 10 minutes walk from the tube station (or more depending which one you go to). I'd arrive at least an hour before.
