Thank you Dit! It's almost like being there (except I slept through the whole thing)  I'm so happy to see Oz there, I love them together, that last picture is so sweet. |

Well done that man! And well done to Dit. Sounds like everyone had a great time. I am assuming the Mayster will have had a few pints to celebrate :-)

Mate of mine was speaking with James for about an hour in the pub on Friday evening, she works for GCHQ and he was fascinated by the work she does, of course my mate wasn't able to tell him of the direct work she does, nevertheless mate was impressed by the way he was, natural, and very charming

Thank you Dit for keeping us in the loop and all those wonderful pics. Especially for me in the states because I don't think I'll ever see the TG3. Quick question tho, is that Thomas the tank engine in the roundabout in the first video?And thanks Jacqui for the behind the scenes videos. Those are so cool.

That video is Awesome! (not a word I use lightly). Thanks so much for finding it,, Jacqui. His sheer delight is so evident, and the fact that Oz says it's the only time James has allowed him (Oz) to embrace him in all the time they've known each other - and it's James whose arms go forward first - says it all about the strength of emotion that was being felt. |

Wow, when James hugged Oz, my hand went to my mouth. Then I heard Oz mentioned that was their first embrace. A lump formed in my throat. James is growing up. Ya gotta hug people. Especially Oz, he's so f--king loveable! But James is still a little boy Always will be. He was excited at the end no matter what. And THANKS for the next video, that was fun to watch! Awesome. Thanks so much for keeping us over-the-ponders connected to the fun ;D |

Watching that first video, I could just tell James was going to hug Oz. And you're right, Dit. He does start it all first. ;D ;D Such a great day for them, even if they didn't beat the Germans. |

Picked up these two this morning Were these photo's on the internet or did you take them yourself Dit ? Not lucky enough to be there myself, thatsawrap, wish I had been! That's partly why I started following it through the internet. All pics and information were 'borrowed' from open sites such as twitter or from local papers etc. I try to be careful not to infringe copyright. |
