The news from Japan is very troubling and it has given me reason to worry that one of our members (Ptarotuos…Peter) who lives in the area of Tokyo.
I have sent him a PM enquiring if all is ok with him and his young family….and do so hope the news is good.
Just thought to post this in blog form and await an update if he has internet access and is logging on to GoY.
Our thoughts surely go out to all those affected by this disaster.
~~~~~~Here is a link for Ptarotuos’ blog which updates on the situation in Japan and to say his family are all ok.

Just been watching it on the news, its horrific all the damage and lives lost, they will not know the extent of it for days to come, we can only pray for them and thank god we do not have disasters like that, It does make you feel ashamed of all the moaning we do in this country about a bit of rain and snow!

Funny how the moon is closest to the earth at present and this happens perhaps they should study a bit further field. Next year there will be 3 Blue moons, wonder what will happen then will be interesting to see.

My prayers are with the people affected. I hope there will be plenty of help for them.

I have not been able to do anything much apart from going shopping, I am glued to the TV. My thoughts and prayers are with all the people of Japan and surrounding countries.

My thought and prayers are with Ptarotuos and his family and all people in Japan affected by this disaster. Thanks W.lass for printing this.

Our thoughts are with all affected by the earthquake and tsunami. Nature can be so beautiful yet so devastating.
11 Mar, 2011
Its fairly inconcievable how horrific it is. Peace one minute and devastation the next... thankfully they are extremely well prepared for earthquakes, or else the damage could be so so much worse.

I've been watching it this morning, my heart goes out to everyone over there, you know we moan and grown about our weather, yet other countries get far more bad weather etc that Britain.
11 Mar, 2011
been watching it on Sky without words to express my feelings ...that area of the world has had such a dreadful few months, the devastation shown is unbelievable and like everyone else do hope our friend and his family are safe.....

Thanks Whiston-- i've just read it, its a relief to know that they're ok -- I don't know about you but I find the news bulletins very hard to watch those unbelievable images of dozens of cars and I don't know what else inexorably rolling forwards---
11 Mar, 2011
how dreadful for all those affected by this disaster, my thoughts are with them.....
11 Mar, 2011
Yes, I agree Pam...the news reports are very disturbing and make for sad viewing. I expect it will be a few days before the whole horror of this tragedy unfolds.
11 Mar, 2011

11 Mar, 2011

San....take a look at his blog entries. He is from the UK but lives and works in Japan. He has written about their country property which he is currently clearing/planting up in his spare time (they are not permanently resident in this property). It makes interesting reading :)

Yes it makes you wonder how lucky we are does nt it, nice to see all are willing to help out there in such a disaster, when no one comes to help us with Cumbria when they lost all their infrastructure or Boscastle and Abberfan, I just hope usa, australia, new zealand too members are ok later lets hope Peter is ok with his family.
