I am so excited as a good friend and I have tickets for all of the dressage at the Palace of Versailles. We've booked our accommodation today. I just wondered if anyone else has tickets for anything. I feel as if I just won the lottery as we are both keen dressage riders and for me, this is a real "bucket list" trip.

Great to hear some positive posts. Our daughter worked at the Champagne and Fish bar at the 2012 Olympics and enjoyed every minute of it. There were screens showing all the events and tbh the job itself was pretty easy as runners brought all the food up and she just had to take it to the tables so she was able to watch quite a lot. As an event rider she knew all about all of the equestrian sports at Greenwich and was in demand to explain what was happening. The atmosphere was brilliant and she was given tickets to watch the diving by some customers who were unable to go. she says it's something she'll never forget.
