At the heart of my campaign has been these words, and for good reason, we hear them, say them every year, but has it gotten to the point that we don't really think about it, or what we are promising? I have been trying to get people to think, to remember and to learn so that they can.
Gallipoli 2015
On the 25th of April 2015 it will be 100 years since the battle of Gallipoli where 2779 Kiwis died in WWI. I am hoping to be there, so please support me by following my blog. Thanks :)

Flanders Fields
Hi, so even if you hear it every year, i've decided to put up the poem IN FLANDERS FIELDS as it has become such an important part of our ANZAC day celebration. I strongly recommend that you read through it :-)
In Flanders Fields
John McCrae, May 1915
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

Ok guys, nows the time... DUN DUN DUUUUN!!!!
See what I mean about it looking weird?
Anyway, remember to follow my four social media's on the right --->
My quiz on Facebook is still going, so go check that out, and I have got facts and thoughts going on Twitter. I am hopping on a plan in just over an hour to Hong Kong, and as I can't get data on my phone for some long winded confusing reason, I will be using the wi-fi at the hotels. Because of this I will not be posting for a while, but when I get back online there will be new photos and videos on instagram and YouTube :)

Thank You
I have had well over 300 views and am so thankful for each and every one of them. Please continue to show your support especially throughout my campaign week.
This is also showing just how many Kiwis are getting behind me. If you can't see that is over 200 views, just from within New Zealand! It really does mean so much to me that you are getting behind me. So I just really want to say a ginormous thank you to all of you who have been showing your support and keep up the good work, you are doing so well!
