ajnz asked: Thank you Casey Rain. I was born & raised in Sutton Coldfield (Falcon Lodge actually) and have lived in New Zealand this past 11 years. Like so many expats I've spoken to this week, I watched the events unfold from across the world feeling similtaneously so distant and yet so deeply connected to my homeland. News coverage down here is limited, and I felt an intense need to be aware of what was happening at home. I've followed your blog avidly after finding it by accident and have been uplifted by the messages of people in our great city who are looking out for each other. Kia kaha - stay strong - Brummies as you work through the dark times, and much aroha from the other side. AJ
the other side. AJ
Thank you so much for your words of support. I am so glad I was able to keep people informed, not just in Birmingham, but all around the world. One of my best friends is from New Zealand - would love to visit one day. Peace…
