I'm hate to admit it but I'm getting a little bit sick of the Olympic malarky ... I'm at the stage where I'm just like "Arrghhh I'm sick of waiting, just start it already!" With just 2 days left until the Olympics finally start I'm getting more and more excited! (Doesn't it seem like they've been talking about it forever?!) Here's hoping there's decent coverage on the TV and we take away at least one gold! COME ON IRELAND!
Anyway ... before I get sidetracked too much, the FEI have issued the final timetable
