Kiwi Quake Relief BBQ. Choice Eh Bro.

If you've not seen any news beyond the world cup then you might not know about the recent earthquake in Christchurch. Look it up or at least know that plenty of cuzzies have been royally inconvenienced (using some classic kiwi understatement).

Sichuan School Trip – April 16th

Any of you old enough to remember the 2008 Sixes will recall that the two auctions we organised that week in HK and Shanghai raised enough money to rebuild a school destroyed by the Earthquake. Together with a couple of my staff I am going there on April 16th (leave Chengdu on 15th) so if any of you have business in Chengdu and want to join the trip let me know. Its a hell of a road trip. Guanyuan is halfway between Chengdu and Xian up a mountain somewhere. The school classrooms and dormitories are now finished so the school is fully functioning. The funds raised have allowed the school to get an extra piece of ground for sports facilities and work is just about to start. The school is actually called the Shanghai Cricket Project Hope school although no-one is sure the good citizens of Guanyuan know what cricket is.
