Yeah we've had heaps of news about the mining disaster, who gives a stuff about stupid Paris Hilton!
Far out today should just be declared over for NZ, there's been a plane crash at a place called Fox Glacier (on the south island also) with reports of 9 being killed. Holy hell....

Glad to hear you and yours are alright, Becks.
News really sucks. While I can hear all about Paris Hilton's latest drug arrest 24/7, one has to search for actual news. Just reading up on the mining disaster in Chile, for example. Not a WORD of it on the 100+ channels of crap I have on TV. Imagine being trapped in a hole for 4+ months. Sure makes Paris seem petty.

Christchruch is on this map here, so you can see where it is relative to other cities  :

I'm selfish. I want my friends to be safe first, then I'll think about the rest. Glad you were not there.

Parts of the central city are in ruins, but there have been no deaths thank God, two men have been seriously injured and there have been other minor injuries. Water mains have burst and seweage lines have burst too, hopefully that is all under control by now, or soon. |

Is summer ever really over where you live though? Does it snow there? or even frost? I suppose you get some almost frozen days.
