Nothing quite like Cheltenham

IF I live to be a hundred, I don’t think I will ever quite get my head around the phenomenon known as Cheltenham.

Think of the great sporting occasions which take place on our planet, such as the soccer World Cup or the Olympics.

Think of an all-Ireland hurling or football final, even the eagerly awaited Warren Gatland-Eddie O’Sullivan crossing of swords when Ireland and Wales go toe-to-toe in rugby this weekend.
