CHRISTCHURCH visit: Rami Sherman-Operation Entebbe: a personal recollection: August 20
Rami Sherman was an operations officer in the special forces squad that successfully rescued 102 of 106 hostages from terrorists at Entebbe International Airport in 1976. He is travelling through NZ and is giving a series of public addresses to tell his fascinating story.
It turns out that a New Zealander was also amongst the hostages, Colin Hardie, who used to be an editor of the Christchurch Star. The local papers wrote about Colin here: www.nzherald.co.nz... and here: www.pressreader.com...
Rami Sherman will be speaking on Sunday, August 20, at 2PM, at the Air Force Museum lecture theatre, Wigram, Christchurch
A collection will be taken at the Christchurch event to help defray costs.

Cats Still Missing - NEW TO AREA - Please keep sharing
Please help us find Sid and Dizzy. Missing since 10th November around Leander Street, Northcote. They snuck away after a stressful move into town, and so will likely be confused and a bit timid.
If found please contact Barbara Johnstone on 027 441 5594
We are particularly worried about Dizzy (black & white) he is older mainly a house cat and is VERY deaf : there were possible sightings of him on Joiners Ln (near Vagues Rd) not long after they went missing, but he's not been spotted since.
Please keep a look out for him. Thanks to everyone for your support.
