Whilst the world cup is grabbing the headlines,please just spare a thought for all those involved in the rescue attempt in Thailand. Fingers crossed.

Yes, the oxygen levels in the cave are dropping, so the rescue mission is on today, before the rain comes.

Feel for them but I don't think a prayer is going to do any good. Hope they all get out ok.

According to BBC they are being rescued as four first then three groups of three then last the coach.

Hopefully they will all make it, heavy rain falling in the area which is not helping matters

Getting back to the subject after all we don't want 'it' hijacking the thread...this has been released

Thailand's government has released details about the rescue plan.

"The government has distributed a GFX about how the boys will dive out from Tham Luang cave:

equipment - air tanks, full face masks
two divers accompanying one child
they dive together, guided by the rope placed by the rescuers
when facing a very narrow path, they will release the tank from the back and slowly roll the tank and guide the kid through the channel
from Chamber 3 to the cave's mouth they will walk
The government says the advantages are that this could be done fast and without using much resources.

But it also warns that this requires requires high-level skills of the divers; the boys should have some diving skills, strong mind and should not be panicking.

ETA for the first four out is 14:00 UK time, all our thoughts and positive vibes are with the boys, coach and the divers
