Following submissions from two thousand entrants, faced with the challenge of celebrating the 2012 Olympics, the judging panel has chosen the following district names..................….
East Wick (courtesy, I imagine, of someone’s DVD collection, though without the witches); Chobham Manor (?); Sweetwater (because it was once home to a sweet factory and there’s a splash of H2O); Marshgate Wharf (presumably there is, or once was, a marsh, together with a gate) and last, but not least, Pudding Mill (I won’t even guess).

Further to this can I suggest one more?...how about Borem in the East End ?
....nothing to inspire future generations, or even a touch of traditional English innuendo.
Of course, it would be fair to mention that I didn’t enter the competition. Even so, I'm entitled to point out a disappointing absence of Olympic gold.
Final thought...can I suggest this instead of the National Anthem, when the UK medals are presented?..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-2kcPK79vY
