As many of you know, Dave and i lost a friend in the Tsunami, after, i went to do my tiny bit to help over there. Can we please just take a moment to think of those victims and their families, this the first year. Donna x

Hiya Strump - l have just watched a programme this evening and it got me thinking of the ladies you met on the beach and how hard you worked. We will never forget them and all the other people, especially those who died. What an amazing race of human beings. Here's to their courage,tolerance, caring and tenderness. jude sarf wales xxxx

Hi Donna It's constantly on my mind at the moment. Mum is in Sri Lanka for 3 months. She's spending a month helping out in the elephant orphanage and then goes to a childrens orphanage for 2 months

Donna, our neighbours have just gone out there again until April, according to their brother. Also, our acquaintance, Colin went out there again recently; he has a wife and child out there. Yes, we'll be thinking of the victims, especially on Boxing Day. x
