Au contraire my little optimist. 0.2% was attributable to Olympic ticket sales themselves. The statisticians couldnt calculate the individual effect of things like hotel rooms booked from overseas vistors, holidays by UK residents spent in the UK instead of abroad, restaurants etc. FWIW I think we ar past the worst, but the recovery is going to be slow and sluggish simply because of all the money being taken out of the economy by budget cuts.
