This sounds absolutely fantastic! I wish I could go, but it's much too expensive - to fly from the UK.

No viewing for me, either. 3000 miles too far away. I will just settle for the CoE's viewing.
We were one in the same, running like moths to the flame. You'd hang on every word I'd say, but now they only ricochet.
