	I hope they are running to time. My friend's son isn't expecting to meet her son off the coach at his school until about 2am. I need her to get a few hours good sleep to drive safely because I'm seeing her tomorrow when we join up for our holiday. She needs to set off early to beat the traffic. xxJ

	Bit of a let down with Paul and strange song choice Overall well done but I think there were a few to many performers

	I thought it was pretty good and I didn't think it would be. I think we acquitted ourselves pretty well. Couldn't compete with Beijing, they spent a lot of money on theirs. Loved the cauldron, :-)
