Officially backed by the London 2012 Olympic Games

Why does a protuberance protrude? And not protrube? Or protube?

Calling a cat Margot seems like a really good idea until you have to stand in your backyard and shout it for all the world to hear. Then you feel like a bit of a knob. To make it even worse, there is no possible way of pronouncing the word "Margot" without sound as if you've spent your entire life living in Surrey and are really really posh.

Isn't it awesome that now London has won the Olympics, the government is bringing in a bill to ban any business that isn't an official sponsor from using the words "London 2012"? That's a whole BILL to stop it happening, they're not just going to ask people nicely. And that the good old Olympic committee is "prepared to take legal action" against any business that DOES commit the heinous crime of putting the words London and 2012 in a sentence. Although presumably you'll get away with it if you say: "Don't come to London in 2012 because it's going to be horrid."
