Concerned today about family in the flood ravaged Bay of Plenty – they have no water or power but the phone still works which is great because it’s so hard to get news coverage! There were no ‘news updates’ on the hour on a Sunday on NZ TV and NZ is obviously not big enough for a dedicated news channel. Also tried the web but all the main news sites were so slow with updates and the whole country seemed far more interested in the rugby victory the night before…GRRRR.
