It certainly is!

1.373  Uncommitting from 
{chris at mccormick.cx-20120507044101-8yg0ex8l6nsr3zsy} to 
{chris at mccormick.cx-20120507044101-8yg0ex8l6nsr3zsy}

And then the KeyboardInterrupt traceback.

I am not sure if I am a typical user or not but I would not have thought 
to check ~/.bzr.log - I will from now on though!

Thanks for all the help.

Cheers,

Chris.
