    Yes indeed,
    I must now say that seeing this unfolding situation has actually had me in tears, and i'm very sure i am not alone in saying that.
    We must consider ourselves very lucky to not live in places prone to these potential disasters, and think about the difficulties these communities face when such things happen.

    I think sometimes, and i'll hold my hands up and admit i'm guilty of it and i'm sure every member here can too, that we take our lives a little too much for granted and in fact complain about how "rubbish" things are way too often, it's things like this that make you realise just how lucky we really are.

    I cannot see anything on the webcam.
    I suppose that it is now dark there.

    ..

    They are talking about a conference next Monday.

    I am astonished by how slowly things are going there.

    I seems to take days to make a decision the could be made in half a minute.
