Well guys I think i've been living under a rock for the last few days....... Didn't realise until today that there had been a devastating earthquake in Haiti on Tuesday!
Tens of thousands are feared to have been killed and some three million displaced. They are finding some survivors. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/8459090.stm Although time is really running out now......
Medical supplies, food and fresh water are in short supply, aid is having difficulty getting through. Most people in the city will spend another day without aid today!
The mood in the city is getting fractious with people scouring for lost family & friends. I don't know what to say, it's so awful out there for them.......

If like me you wish to donate to the cause go to:
or visit them on face book:
The Disaster Emergency Committee are listed in the following article: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8460380.stm )
Today I say: Think of the people of Haiti often
