UK's big question: Will weather permit bikinis during beach volleyball?
For a country that does not get to see much of the sun, having a beach volleyball event in London during the Olympics may bring an artificial sense of warmth here. If meteorologists are to be believed, the weather though can keep the players from taking out their bikinis at the Horse Guard Parade - venue for the sport.
