Please donate to the disaster appeal

[Aces]

I have just donated £25.00 tp the Phillipeans disaster appeal, I have been shocked by the footage of the devastation they have suffered and it makes you realise how lucky we are, not living in such countries that suffer huge storm fronts that wreak havoc on poor folks.

I have done so already. All I suggest is that those not in a position to donate just say a private word to whoever makes the difference to you.

My wife is tin shaking with Rotary later today. I'll give her a few quid to start the ball rolling. Shocking footage on TV, I was in Southern India when the tsunami hit but luckily we were at a place called Top Slip which was in the mountainous region when it hit. So have seen first hand the damage caused even though where we were wasn't that badly hit it was still bad enough.

The past week was a hard week regarding communications with my wife and kids who are in the Philippines. It took me 4 days to contact them but thankfully they are all safe. A few bits of damage to windows and the roof of the house but so long as they are safe the material side of things dont matter, i cried bitter tears of worry the past week, no shame in saying that either, watching the impending news on CNN or SKY seeing the devastation that unfolded then not being able to phone use skype, brought out those deep fears we all hate to feel, but thank whatever higher power there is theyre all safe.

The only bright side of the past week was listening to Leeds beating charlton
