As long as it can handle PDFs it should have opened. It works on my iPad.
I just found out that if you go to the Countries area of the website and select Great Britain you can get it to show all the British athletes that are competing that day and what in.

You could do that for the Olympics bungle
You can narrow it down as well so if you're going to athletics, you can just show the GB athletics team rather than the swimmers/cyclists etc.

going to basketball tomorow!! 
Has anyone been to anything at the 02? Is it possible to get into the 02 before your event starts? We've got a 3 hour gap between olympic park day pass and the start of the basketball and wanted to get a meal in the 02. Is this possible....?

It wasn't the PDF that was the issue. The site gave me the mobile version which does not contain the link.

Yes, we went there a couple of weeks ago but didn't have tickets. Just went because it was a nice day and to have a wander. Just went and sat in a pub in the dome and had a drink.

If you have an Olympic Park Day Pass then you can be at the Park all day. Maybe you have an Olympic Park grounds pass?

oh maybe. It says access between 10 to 3pm.Does this mean we won't be able to access the actual venues within the park but will be able to walk round everywhere else, look at the gardens etc..?

One on one? You're crazy.
that's what we had today - we couldn't go in to any of the venues to see anything, but were free to wander around - could have stayed for 5 hours doing that - but left after just over 2 - plenty of food places - not cheap mind.

that's good to know - didn't think they'd be enough to do & see to spend 5 hours there.
Did you have to queue long to get in? What are the toilets like?
Minnie_the_Minx

That's an Olympic Park pass (£5) which is different to the Olympic Park DAY PASS
You can't enter any venues. There was much confusion over this as the Olympic Park pass didn't originally exist

no queue at all when we got there at about 4.45, quite surprised - didn't use the loos - they looked alright from the outside

I think that is what we had - 4pm to 10pm I think (I didn't actually see it - Mrs21 had it)

Definitely, as afternoon/evening session starts at 4.00pm and it's what I originally got for my sister before I nabbed athletics for her

Did you time how long it took you to walk from Stratford International to the Park? Bet you didn't

Right, b/f is dead upset now and thinks people are being ripped off because they're removing races from the athletics session.
Can anyone explain why other than it was already subject to change depending on athletes because I can't get it into his head that you're aware when you buy tickets it's subject to change, but he thinks it's outrageous that 5 races have been pulled in PAT 10 session considering it's one of the shortest sessions anyway

didn't time myself - but it was probably about 10 minutes - you get fed through Westfield Mall first - but it didn't seem to take long.

when we got there, mrs21 produced the ticket which she had printed off (emailed from her mate) and the woman checking it said there was only 1 ticket 
I could have been in Excel I was thinking - Mrs21 said she was sure there were 2 tickets as there were 2 different barcodes - the woman said there was only one - eventually she called over a colleague, who confirmed there were 2 ...phew!!

Wheelchair table tennis is boring to be fair, just because the rallies are very short, but the paralympians who can stand put on a good show.
Swimming tomorrow.
Athletics Saturday.

Yes, I had tickets for the powerlifting, but they include daypass tickets. The day pass tickets you need to plan carefully, as you'll end up in queues otherwise, but I loved the whole day. There wasn't one sport that appealed to me, but I really would go again and turn up earlier next time.
Also saw an incredible powerlifting world record as a woman weighing less than 40kgs lifted 109kgs.
