[Habbibu]

here!

I'm listening to the President's speech again now.

been watching too, marking place

do you think bbc aare watchung this thread?

mamo! oh, pass me a light then

I am definitely trying to stay awake... been folliwing since this morning and only last couple of hours been busy with college work at the same time. But dont think I have managed too finish it all. Will tell lecturer that the rescue was far more important than database design

Raul Bustos, the next miner due out, is "luckiest unlucky man on Earth", according to his wife Carola Narvaez. He lost his builder's business in the central port city of Talcahuano during Chile's monster earthquake and tsunami in February, and headed north to the San Jose mine for a new start...

BBC Tim does a fab job covering this event.

oh, goodness, have you seen raul's story?

yes, they are watching us watching them thinking they are watching us

or something

BOF - I just listened to that again, it's hard to believe a politician was speaking those words!!!

Anyone got some matchsticks?

I'm struggling to stay awake here.

Wish I'd joined the thread earlier.

I've been watching since 9pm last night, barring two hour long naps and a GP appointment.

Have gotten through an entire packet of coffee, a box of after eights and had 4 takeaways

hurray number 30! all together now...

Ooh this wife reminds me of the Editor in Ugly Betty

Easier than cooking for myself! They have been immense

am loving the live feed on the BBC now, you can feel the mood lightening more and more as the day goes on, 'twas all very factual and straight this morning as obviously they had no idea how smoothly things would go
