I have been really behind this week and haven't blogged about the dreadful events in Samoa and Indonesia. Tweets taking up too much of my time these days! Here is a brief summary of the events. Thousands of people may have died in remote areas when a powerful earthquake struck Sumatra. Australian, British, Japanese and South Korean rescuers have arrived in Indonesia and European countries and Russia are also sending help. As usual lots of fantastic info on the BBC website on this week’s activities. See link here. S2 in particular should look at this as we will be examining this over the next few months. Some short videos on this here too from the BBC.
