Olympic Merchandise Launch

I had the honor (thanks to @vituralshropshire) of attending the launch of the official London 2012 merchendise at Golden Bear Factory. I got to meet Wenlock and Mandeville:))

It's the first time Olympic mascots are named for historical reasons (Wenlock named after Shropshire town of Much Wenlock, which held a forerunner of the current Olympic Games, and Stoke Mandeville, a village in Buckinghamshire where the Paralympic Games were first held.)
