Well just got off the phone with Bridget's folks. It was a very close call, Bridget got up in the morning, looked out of the window and saw it coming. John and Briget started running On the way they overtook one person, he was unable to keep up. Some others who they were running with showed them the way to safety, the one guy they overtook, heh didn't make it... John's feet got badly cut up and they lost alot of their items.

Yeah my brother and wife (John and Brigette) are currently in Thailand and were planning to dive today... unfortunatly I have no idea where in Thailand they are....
He hasn't cotacted me yet, but even if he wanted to I doubt he could.
Fingers crossed!
p.s. The British Foreign office have set up an emergency help line: 0207 008 0000, I havn't been able to get through yet, its really busy.
