keptwoman Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Thinking of all WTMers there, or with family there, hope you all are safe. Very concerned with the pics on TV and the reports of multiple fatalities. I knew as soon as it hit at midday that the news would not be good :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuntieM Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Sandra, do you know which board members are in that area? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deb in NZ Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I think Willow lives in the Christchurch area. The phone lines & cell towers are down according to the NZ news, so we may not hear for a few days. Pray for her family & others affected by the earthquake.

nd293 Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Hoping everyone from the board is OK. The footage from the CBD looks really bad. So much worse than the higher magnitude earthquake last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
