I'm so pleased you started this 'conversation'Kate. I visited Christchurch in Jan. 2010 and I loved to sit in front of the Cathedral, eating fish and chips, bought from one of the many food vendors, while soaking up the sunshine and watching the world go by. I'm sure many of the victims of this tragic disaster did just that a few days ago. I cannot help thinking that one year on it could quite easily have been me who lost my life when the spire came tumbling down.  My heartfelt love and sympathy goes to each and every person affected by this terrible tragedy.

Agree with what you say but think this would be better in the UKChat or Chit Chat forums - it will get a far better response there. It is possible to move it - click the Edit button at the top and you will be able to move the thread.
