It is not my intention to fill my blog with tales of Japan, but it needs everyone to understand that on Friday 11th March, at 2:46 pm local time, at a point off the North-Eastern Coast of Japan, a major earthquake followed by a tsunami changed the world.
There seems to be a reluctance on the part of the Japanese Government to give figures of the deaths, but at the moment 20,000 dead and 40,000 missing is the information we have. Almost certainly the figure will be close to 100,000. The majority of these deaths will be from the tsunami rather than the earthquake.
