3.46pm: Heaps of people already waiting at the Henderson train platform for the 9 minute-late train
4.06pm: Everyone is packed into the train like sardines!
4.15pm: Had to push, shove and step on toes to get off the train!
4.45pm: Going in now!
5.30pm: It's the last night and everyone's taking photos
5.45pm: Waiting in our dressing room 'VOM 2' with two hours to go!
6.50pm: Choir leader Ben gives us a pep talk before Choir 2 has to go out
7.10pm: We're lining up now, we can hear the huge crowd screaming and shouting!
7.25pm: Lining up in our Voms, 5 minutes to go!
7.30pm: Here we go! Broadcast commencing!
8.00pm:It's all over! A-Mazing! So many camera flashes and so much noise! It's a once in a lifetime experience! Now off to the city!
8.30pm: On the train to the city but a broken down train is blocking the tracks, had to get off at Newmarket!
8.50pm: Bus finally shows up. We had to persuade the bus driver to let us on for free, even showing him our RWC accreditation!
I'll type up a proper post on what actually went on a little later so stay tuned!
