| Worst fears
Brian
I spoke to Andrew this morning to keep him up to speed with what was happening as he's out of TV/Internet contact at the moment.
Having told him what I knew I continued driving feeling sure that the worst of the disaster (i don't think too strong a word) was yet to be heard, lives, homes, businesses etc, all devastated.
Coming in to read your post some 6 or 7 hours later realised my fears, as do other posts around the web.
The koi community embraces every corner of the world but really does focus on a very small part of Japan, the heart of it's community, a heart which has, according to reports, been entirely devasted in the last 48 hours. The significance of the impact this event will have is evidenced by the number of the 'community' either in the area personally or knowing others there at this very time.
I know that the koi community in Japan will rally in the face of adversity and I hope the western world will too rally to support them, without them none of us would be here talking koi!
