Flags

Yesterday our All Blacks flag was flying all day..... now it's replaced with a blue/white & red one. !!! It's a sad day in France (for kiwi's)

Avord

This weekend Shaun had to give a speech in a small town in the centre of France. A Kiwi WW2 pilot was shot down over this town in July 1944 and his body rests here. They named a street after him and it was such an honour to be there.
