I have everything crossed for the miners to have a safe rescue, not forgetting the last man down there will not be a miner and will have to get himself out safely.

Do you watch television in the mornings? The only time it goes on in our house is when any of the kiddies stop, then its only kiddies channels. I listen to the radio whilst I read my paper.

Posted by VoltmanI got a phone call telling me to watch the news. Sorry Chris Evans but there's no contest.
So, Phil, do you really read one of them filthy, inky, lying rags in the morning? I wouldn't line a pig sty with them. VM
I suppose its down to which newspaper that you read, there are certain ones I wouldn't line the hamsters cage with such as the Sun & the Daily Mail. I try to read at least three differing newspapers each day and about 5 on a Sunday.

Wonderful news, all safe. I think now that the rescue pod should go in a museum on permanent display as a testament to the ingenuity of the human mind when faced with a situation such as that we have just witnessed.
Great news, it's good to see determination win through. It would have been so easy to say " there is nothing we can do". Best of luck to all of them, let's hope Chile honours the rescuers.
