Quotes

"With nine weeks to before the Games start, we are in a fantastic position ahead of where we expected to be when tickets first went on sale in 2011. There are still tickets available, but many sports have limited availability. Sports with 'good availability' of tickets: volleyball, football, taekwondo, handball, basketball, boxing, beach volleyball, canoe sprint, table tennis and hockey."
SIR – I was interested in the article about the action for which William Fuller was awarded a Victoria Cross ( "Brave Welshman’s life-or-death risk to be chronicled in new WWI book" , May 4)
