    The troops & guards doing the security are doing a really efficient job and will have you inside in no time. Empty water bottles are fine to bring, as you can fill them inside the park.

    If you can undergo 30 minutes of excruciating (& happy) marketing on behalf of Coke, you'll get a free picture with an Olympic Torch at the top with the Stadium in the background. Best do it at night.

    The Olympic Park contains several sporting venues such as Zaha Hadid's Aquatics Centre. In 2013, the park is to be known as Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, to commemorate the Diamond Jubilee.

    Really well organised for entry, friendly and helpful staff. Queues are big for the Megastore, so you might prefer to browse and order online.

    An amazing transformation of what was an industrial wasteland - the wild flowers by the canal are so colourful

    If you're getting something to eat after a session at the stadium - head up to the outlets towards the velodrome/Basketball arena for shorter queues and more variety.

    The fish and chips are excellent. I'm glad visitors to the country will experience a good example of the nation's favourite

    If you can manage a 25 minute walk, getting off at West Ham and taking the Greenway is much much less crowded than Stratford.

    Be aware McDonalds is not the only foodstuff you can buy on the park, there are lots of food outlets to cater for all needs, it's just that McD's are the only branded food retailer.

    Try the Greenway entrance it's quieter (west ham stop on the Jubilee)

    Toilets are clean right now, but I can imagine them getting VERY messy when crowded. Also no Dyson-style hand driers - I am disappoint!

    Don't think many shops open before 8, however the security queues at 7:30 were a doddle :)

    The fastest way to London is NOT West Ham, it is probably the Javelin train from the Stratford Gate
