I'll wait for CrazyLoop to put the schedule up again. Thought I'd start this as apparently Mike whathisname is in hospital or something! :)

By the way, on a personal note thank you to all the DS posters for your wonderful contributions during the Games. It's been a lovely experience sharing all this with you reading your thoughts, opinions and outrages! :P Two days to go, enjoy it folks! :)

    I hope he's going to be ok?!

    I have the schedule but can't post as diving is yet to finish, as soon as we know whether we've qualified or not, it'll be up :D

    You're welcome. He was something like 16th after his 5th dive as he mucked up but they're doing round 6 which is the last one. Hopefully he'll qualify *fingers crossed*

    as the games begins to wind down, here are my predictions for GB medals tomorrow....

    Gold - mens k1 200m
    Silver - mens 5,000m
    Silver - mens bantomweight boxing
    Bronze - mens k2 200m

    Interestingly, there is a chance for three golds tomorrow, even though i predict one, I'm being a bit cautious with my predictions..:D

    I am very confident re: the k1 200m race though, and I if all goes to plan I will be there to see it in the morning...:D

    His final won't be until Sunday along with Freddie's. I checked before posting the schedule. If it tomorrow I can always add it to schedule :D

    My last trip to the games tomorrow, going to the horsey/runney/shootey bit of the Modern Pentathlon in the afternoon then the taekwando in the evening.

    No early start for me for a change last 2 weekends I've had to be up at 5 to get to London for the morning sessions!

    Women have better chances than the men. Men would need a lot of luck to medal but it's not impossible.

    Probably friction burns from intense masturbation over Helen Skelton :)

    But on a serious note, how do people know if another FM is in hospital? did he do a post?
