I'm watching it too Ceri, along with the England v Portugal match (usual pain watching England) and Wimbledon - spoilt for choice today!

We're going to a neighbours for a BBQ this evening but I have to come back and put the guinea pigs back in their hutch and will aim for the launch time [msnwink][msnwink][msnwink]

Watching them board I can feel the anticipation... God bless them all for a safe journey.
