Today marks the second anniversary of the catastrophic earthquake that stuck Northern Pakistan and killed more than 88,000 people. I blogged about this on the first anniversary 'here' following a visit I had made to Balakot, the town worst hit. These events miles away are so quickly forgotten by those of us unaffected, but spare a thought (and a prayer) today for those whose lives will never be the same a result, and for the ongoing effort to rebuild fragile communities torn apart by the quake. Find out more from the BBC 'here' and wikipedia 'here'.
