Camp Hope - miners rescue contd

[Habbibu]

here!

The national anthem's long, isn't it?

The interpreter sounds like a Spanish Zoe Wanamaker.

Get that cage back down there guys, your jobs not complete yet

JB's - I'm in St Lucia. DH and I have been very confused by the timing of all of this because it appears that Chile is one hour ahead of us and yet it's behind us on the nap (goes off to check Atlas).

only one verse and a chorus

Pure, Chile, is your blue sky;
Pure breezes cross you as well.
And your flower-embroidered field
Is the happy copy of Eden.
Majestic is the white mountain
That was given to you as a bastion by the Lord
That was given to you as a bastion by the Lord
And that sea that calmly washes your shores
Promises you a future splendor
And that sea that calmly washes your shores
Promises you a splendid future.

Chorus
Sweet fatherland, accept the vows
With which Chile swore at your altars:
Either the tomb of the free will you be
Or the refuge against oppression
Either the tomb of the free will you be
Or the refuge against oppression
Either the tomb of the free will you be
Or the refuge against oppression
Or the refuge against oppression
Or the refuge against oppression.

Just incredible.

That was beautiful. Well done to you all. Cheers .

I'm off to bed but I wish the 5 rescuers all well and hope they get out safe and sound.

They all look so drained no it is (almost) over

Errrrmmm was that the mining minister? the dishy youngish guy is a red coat? yum

cheers all

I'm off too guys.

Night all.

God bring the rescuers safely back home too.

Why are they presuming the foreman needs less medical attention than the rest?
He looks like he might have a nervous breakdown, all those cameras on him

Must sleep but want the medics etc out now!

Clink clink clink. I must keep looking away every time they show the minister - I want to see a yummy Chilean! Where am I looking?

I can see the rope behind him moving - so they've obviously got the capsule on it's way again........hope they show them coming out as well

I wondered that TDWP. Making him listen to a big speech by the PM then sing the national anthem - whereas the others were on a stretcher by then.

'night all. Will keep all fingers and toes crossed for the rescuers, but just can't keep my eyes open any longer.

Sleep well all.

well they haven't forgotten them - ticker on the video said that 6 rescuers still remain down there........
