[Happy Seagull]

I haven't watched the news since i first saw it. I saw pics of people getting washed away, not the sort of thing that should be on the TV.

The view from that window on the six o'clock news. The speed and colour of the water. No wonder so many lost their lives, you wouldn't have stood a chance. They also said that on those two nearby groups of islands over half the population was missing. Shocking!

You know, we bitch about so many things in this country the same way that Americans bitch about paying taxes. Believe me, many people in this country don't appreciate how well off we really are.

Is that why we have so many people trying to move here ? Is this why we should let so many more into our lovely country ? What about when the Harveys brewery got flooded ?
