   “I take it that “Guests” and “Wheelchair users” aren’t particularly welcome here.”

   Now, Liam, let’s not jump to conclusions. Guests and wheelchair users are welcome to clamber over the gate.

   Cheers,

   @ QI -

   Ha-ha! Maybe this is Lord Coe’s attempt to get the ‘Wheelchair Users’ fit for the London 2012 Paralympics …

   Thats like inviting a law suit, seriously. If only it was United States, folks would have sued their pants off.

   To be honest, I didn’t try to actually enter. I assumed the fence was really there and not some holographic image meant to deter those not brave enough to try. So I can’t say with 100% certainty that guests and wheelchair users couldn’t enter quite easily.

   @ Mom -

   Indeed, I believe you are correct.

   @ Tazeen -

   Ha-ha. You’re spot on. It would be one thing if there were someone managing the gate, allowing wheelchair users and guests in, but there certainly didn’t seem to be.
