Then there was the memorial service last night at Auckland War Memorial Museum. It was beautiful and something really special, the girls from the Rangi Ruru kapa haka group performed [many had lost their homes in the quake] and brightened it up at that stage... my paper hankies were becoming rather...munted... the catchword of the last month. I sat there sobbing amongst the sobbing... hearing it all around me - there were many Cantabrians at the service and i had a workmate say to me "you can tell the ones who have been through it [the earthquake] their crying is different". I know what she means, it's right from the gut and the heart at the same time.<br /><br />You and yours take care Fi<br />SandySandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15596980842958337137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4467044113128246688.post-11210255196042790722011-03-19T19:01:00.438+13:002011-03-19T19:01:00.438+13:00Hi Fi I've watched the meorial on TV in tears....Hi Fi I've watched the meorial on TV in tears.
