Home kits will include tools, roofing, fixings, plumbing items and a team with experience in reconstruction. A new group of volunteers is inbound and details will be up as soon as we have all the names. BA was hit by a serious quake tonight resulting in wide spread panic. The quake was preceeded by a loud explosion and soon after trucks, vans and motorbikes cloged roads inland..... We drove the 45 minutes back to the ship in total darkness and only the army were out on the roads. Everyone was very nervous and it was very good to be back on board. More in the morning....
