To ALL our New Zealand cousins
For our New Zealand cousins, Australia feels your pain and heart ache.
As was previously expressed on behalf of Canada, our two countries have an unbreakable bond of friendship and support, in our case dating back to Gallipoli in 1915. When you grieve, we grieve. When you weep, our tears flow also. This has literally been the case since Tuesday afternoon. I was immensely proud to see our military, police and medical/nursing teams on their way to help in Christchurch wherever they could. This is no more than you good folk did for us in our time of need, just a few weeks ago. I know the whole of Australia is watching and praying for as many 'miracles' as can be. YOU ARE NOT ALONE, we stand beside you in spirit, even though we are not with you in person!

Earthquake
Just got back from Christchurch where as a building inspector I along with 25 others were flown down via the RNZAF where we were tasked with assessing the damage to commercial and residential dwellings. The media have well and truly covered the scale of destruction and tragedy that has hit not only Christchurch and its surrounding suburbs but also the historic port settlement of Lyytelton, so I wont go into such things except to say that I am extremely proud of our Armed services who I had the pleasure of dealing with while down there as with the local Police and volunteer Fire service's. I would like to say and I'm sure on behalf of all NZ'ers a big heartful thankyou to the overseas search and rescue teams who poured into the city and especially to our kin from across the Tasman who were on the ground so quickly and doing the business so professionally. David.

Holidays NZ
We just booked our holidays to NZ. I reckon the best way for us mere mortals to help out is to keep the cash registers ticking over. Please consider it when next booking a flight. Especially all of us on the West island.
