I am going to Vipassana in 5 days, am drawn to it, and still a teeny uncertain as to the outcome. Your experience backs up what I have seen in another who went - and she is still as unperturbed, centered and powerful as you state you are. In fact, she always radiates. Dear Graham,

If you are not already a regular meditator, it might also be worth trying some sittings, up to an hour long or so, just to get your body a little used to being still. Your enthusiasm guarantees that you will find it rewarding! :-) My recommendation is simply to go with an open mind, and a determination to see it through, whatever your personal challenges may be.
