 Friends         | Once an environmental scientist in New Zealand, now university lecturer in China. Dad of 6 grown kids and happily married to a wonderful lady. Oops, got all China'd out and back in NZ. Working as a geophysicist now. At the end it doesn't matter how many breaths you took but how many moments took your breath away. Try to maximise those moments View all 4 posts  AtlDestroyerGoddess: Very cute 1 month ago • Report 0  Sir Loin: For those of you who are also friends with my wife Amy, Asiababe. She is very sick in hospital, not Covid as far as we know but the Dr has put a drain into her chest to remove fluid building up round one lung. It started with gallstones (huge ones), then a cough. Everything else checks out perfectly apart from elevated BP so the lab is analysing the fluid drawn off and we should get a diagnosis later today.

Rock and roll 😀 A swarm of earthquakes hit NZ overnight, 7.4 which woke us at 0230 then a force 8 centred near Kermadec islands. Many aftershocks and tsunami alerts. Frantically checking friends and family who live on the coast. Expecting evacuations to be ordered so getting the spare room tidy and beds made 😀 View all 9 posts  Sir Loin: Amazing how fast news travels these days, I'm getting emails from USA, Europe, Middle East and Asia checking we're alright. Willow, earthquakes really aren't that bad unless the building you're in collapses on you. We treat them as an everyday event, which they are... usually 100+ a day but these ones were quite strong. A M8 would devastate most cities in other countries but here we mostly build single story homes of timber which flexes with movement and high rise buildings have tricky foundations which absorb shock a bit like car suspension.  Sunny B Blessed: That is so scary! Earthquakes are terrifying! I hope you are okay and no one gets hurt!

Sir Loin: Bastardry at the highest level! Thismorning my wife had an exam resit scheduled for 1000 today. She only scored 90% initially but the pass mark is 100% for drug calculations. This is her final attempt (only 1 resit allowed) Fail this and she must drop out. Just having breakfast at 0850 and a text msg comes through, the resit is now scheduled for 0900. It is a 30 min drive to school. Bastards! View all 20 posts (Post deleted by sarah_spirit )  sarah_spirit in reply to Sir Loin: That time will fly .. They are lucky to have her working with them !! |
