Last week disater strikes and hits hatti its has killed thousends of people and britsh amercan rescue squds are trying to rescue lots more lives  

It is good to know Britain is doing its bit to help out. I just wish there was more we could do. The estimates made by the Red Cross for injuries etc were way off so they might not have enough aid, food, or supplies. I hope the situation is got on top of soon. The biggest killer will end up being disease and lack of clean water!

Who knows with all these charities. Unless you actually work for them and physically see what the money is being used to pay for, I guess we can never be sure. I'm not sure what kind of supervision goes on for charities. They must be quite well regulated otherwise everyone would be setting them up just to make money for themselves!

I just thought I would add a quick post to say that I'm really proud of how the UK charity song for Hatti has done so well! There have been enough online sales to keep it at number 1 two weeks in a row! I think that's a pretty good achievement!

As far as I'm aware, there's still a lot going on. I think they now have managed to get a hold on things and everything's a bit more organised that before. Hopefully homes will start being rebuilt soon, but it's going to be ages before it's all back to normal.

Yes, it is very sad that we can forget these things so quickly. It's just human nature I guess. We all get caught up in our own things and before we know it we have moved on from the latest world disaster. At least we know there are people out there who are actively involved and doing their bit to help out. I am so greatful to all those people, because without them the world would be a much worse place.
