Amidst all the heavy criticism, the doubts, the fears, they have battled non-stop to rectify a very bad situation. At no point did they think, 'I've got to get out of here', 'What if there is a nuclear fallout?', 'I can't be bothered with all this'...
No, they have pushed through, and today we finally have some good news that they are regaining control of the reactors at the plant.
THANK YOU!!!!!
I have just read this updated article from the foreign office....

It basically reiterates what Beddington had said before. This guy knows his stuff, and even after repeated, precautionary, but nonetheless, annoying questions, he states that we ARE FINE!
The worse case is a cloud floating over us over 2 days, and that is ultimately a worst case involving southern blowing gale winds.
Sure the news is negative, but whose media is this? CNN have jumped on the fear bandwagon already. Spinach and milk has been found to be 'contaminated'. This is from Fukushima, right by the plant, and reports should not be blown out of proportion.
It is media like this that is giving me and all my friends a headache.
It is media like this that has driven us out of our home.
We are constantly having to fend off relatives and friends and fight for the country in which we live. One person in particular is making my life unmanageable. When people believe what they read and then relay this information as 100% fact, it is hard to contend with. When someone doubts you, it shows a lack of respect, not just for you, but for your friends, family, and the life that you lead.
We have been dealing with such things since last week, and we are exhausted.
Ironically enough, the BBC now pipe in with a report about the tsunami, saying that, one week on, it is the tsunami that is important. WE KNOW!!!!
People are suffering from lack of supplies. People are cold. We need to really help those in the north, but instead the media wants to drag Japan down into a cesspit of filth and lies.
I heard a very sad story today. They need diapers desperately. We sent some boxes up today, but stupidly no diapers.
If you are reading this and are in Japan, please send more to Second Harvest. I posted the link in another post. The address is in Tokyo and can be done with regular post.
Here is the story I heard from my friend....
・ I need to change my daughter's diaper, but there is any diaper left.
・ We evacuated to the shelter. We have a baby crying in the night, it seems to make people annoyed. We are at a loss.
"・ I am looking for my wife every day, but she is still missing. I have nothing to confirm her safe...
・ Gasoline has run out. We can't go to our uncle's funeral.
・ Our family was ok, but our house, money, everything were washed away by tsunami. We have no hope in the future.
・ Water is still cut off in the shelter. Sanitary condition is getting worse day by day. An increasing number of evacuees sufeer from a wide range of physical irregularities."
We need to focus on helping. Hopefully, we will be able to follow this man more. Prayers and love to his family. I hope he can at least say good bye to his uncle.
After all this ranting, I want to end on a heartwarming note; animals reunited with their owners...
