    I know it is still ~3 weeks away, but thought I'd share this with you. In excel format by day, and by event.

    Nice one Ziggy. Was literally in the middle of doing something similar. Yours is way better than my attempts.

    EDIT; just noticed you have Eoin Rheinisch in the C1 Canoe slalom, but he's actually K1

    Would it be very greedy to ask for an update :)
    3 more athletes have been selected since.
    I haven't kept a close eye on other sports, but swimming and rowing had late additions too, I believe.

    Hey,
    I actually had done an update for myself. Here it is.
    Some people were also asking the time difference. I have the the Irish time of the Irish athletes on the right hand side.

    Regards

    Get a Monkey on your desktop from the beeb. Has the full schedule of events in it, localised to your own timezone, a lot of stuff seems to be starting quite early though.

    Another BBC TV schedule viewable in your browser is availble, a bit easier to view than the Monkey one I think:
    BBC coverage
