Photos of the week: Christmas in July
Lianne, London 2012 Trailblazer Volunteer
Christmas came early this week as London 2012 launched a new range of merchandise. The new products will be available online and from the London 2012 shop just in time for the festive season.

Wenlock and Mandeville enjoyed a well-earned rest after their recent travels, as they relaxed on the sofa surrounded by London 2012 merchandise.

London 2012 christmas merchandise launched

From keyrings to teacups, there's something for everyone. I know where I'll be doing all my festive shopping this year!

Robert the engine

Robert the engine got an early present as he was given a London 2012 makeover. Robert is an 80-year-old locomotive that has been a familiar feature of Stratford Regional Station for the last decade.

He's been temporarily moved to the East Anglian Railway Museum, where he's getting a new crimson coat before returning to Stratford once rail improvement works have been completed. I think he definitely looks at least ten years younger!
