Tokyo Eventing Cross Country

[Wishfilly]

I think it's crickets, not much they can do about that?

 

[milliepops]

my sound is down really low so i don't keep OH up, no crickets here

 

[Lexi_]

Time is very definitely do-able then!

 

[Wishfilly]

Shane well inside the time, despite one long route. Time perhaps a bit too generous?

 

[SOS]

Sport is coming thick and fast. Cat utterly p’eed off, keeps chirping and looking at the stairs blinking slowly. He would like us to go to bed but I’m more awake than at the start!

 

[Honey08]

Yes the time being so doable is a worry.

 

[Wishfilly]

Great to see so many countries with teams, too!

 

[Lexi_]

Everyone join me in wishing that one of the German team has a mild whoopsie then please ?

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Eeekkk

 

[Michen]

Lol Alex horse spooking

 

[Denbob]

Can't see Oli pipping Michael Jung on this course

 

[myheartinahoofbeat]

Anyone else got that annoying buzzing on D+?

It's cicadas, isn't it?

 

[OldNag]

Yes the time being so doable is a worry.

I saw somewhere that the coursebuilder wasn't expecting many to do the time!

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Pick the shoe up quick!

 

[Lexi_]

Someone go and pick that shoe up!

 

[criso]

They've showing oli's round now on the BBC

 

[Lexi_]

Alex is a bit slower than I expected.

 

[Wishfilly]

Crikey, Alex well over the time, didn't expect that. I guess he must have taken a long route we didn't see?

 

[myheartinahoofbeat]

Someone go and pick that shoe up!

I think it lost both front shoes. I saw the other one hanging off while it was galloping

 

[Jeni the dragon]

The BBC coverage has just started! Need it to catch up as I'd rather listen to Scottie commentating than lucinda!
Surprised how far over Alex WT was!

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Is the Beeb showing it all?

 

[Wishfilly]

How amazing to see a one eyed horse at the Olympics!

 

[Jeni the dragon]

I'm not sure if they are! Coverage due to finish around 2.30, but can't find the full list of start times!

 

[Lexi_]

They've showing oli's round now on the BBC

Ooh thank you! Have just changed over in case we get to see any of the other fences. I’m guessing it’s all the host broadcaster footage though… Oh well, at least we get the soothing tones of Ian Stark ?

 

[criso]

Catching up first, all of oli's round then live till 2:30

tokyo time, think last horse out at 2.45

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Blimey, a min over

 

[SOS]

All the turning and not having a “heading for home” boost must be difficult for the horses.

 

[Denbob]

Oooh ouch

 

[SOS]

Fantastic freda looks a wild ride ? well done
