Some people may have heard that there has been a major earthquake in Christchurch, New Zealand.

We have customers in Christchurch, and out thoughts go out to you all and your family. So many people have been affected, either directly or indirectly through their friends or associates.

I would also like to thank all those people from all over the world who have sent me messages asking how I am. Fortunately for me, I am in Auckland, quite a long way away from the devastation. But it is touching to know how far the news has spread, and how much other people care for people they have never met in person. Thank you.

Christchurch will recover. They are a resilient bunch!
