I've just died and gone to Heaven
This folks, is bigger than having your astro pics hanging up at NASA!!!
I got an email this morning, and I'm shaking, and I've been running around the house screaming and dancing since I got it 10 minutes ago.
I won a trip down to Sydney to meet Brian Cox so I can ask him my question about Mars.

My daughter is so jealous, she has a list of questions to bug him with.
Although she is also partially convinced BC is an Alien...

Oh, great.  This is going to be a fun trip to Cairns. "Brian this, and Brian that..." "Did you know that Brian...?"....
LOL  I hope that you're going to ask him how the face was built, and by whom.

Unbelievable jjj, huge congratulations, and so well deserved to get something back from all the support you have given others.
We have so many expectations of your time with him - hair, Tshirt, aftershave, mannerisms, smile, etc. 
Ask him if he is watching the eclipse - probably will while he is down under.
What an exciting week ahead!!!

You won't need a flash the teeth will reflect enough light
