Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to say that I watched in disbelief the scenes in Chistchurch New Zealand today. Having visited this beautiful county a few years ago, and walked across the square in front of the magnificent cathedral I just could not take in the massive devastation and loss of life.
Thinking of all those affected and hoping that New Zealanders show their amazing resilience and natural optimism to get through this.
Thanks Poppy X

    Have just had a reply from my cousin out there, she and her chap are fine as they are at the other end of the island, dint realise how big the place was until she said they were about the same distance as Brussels to Leeds away from where it happened :shock: :shock:
    I am just glad they are ok..

    Nature can be so beautiful but devastating too..
