I noticed the cricketers wearing black arm bands and didn't know why. Then put Sky News on and saw it. Terrible shit. As you look at a map you can see where the quake was. The waves even hit Somalia in Africa

Sorry to dig this one out.
Cant believe how long ago it was now, when I was in Thailand I went to a lot of the places that were affected, its amazing how they got things back together. I made friends with quite a few of the Thai people that lost friends / relatives, especially the people that worked on the beaches renting parasols etc...
