Great idea! I'll let everyone I can think of know

Did you see Howard's speech after the attacks they want us to send over some of our emergency guys to check you guys have all the right measures in place in case an attack happens on Aussie soil. I already count you guys as having had more than your fair share thanks to Bali, but all the same it sounds like 2 heads (checking everything is in place for an emergency) are better than one

Yup the ICE thing is a brilliant idea. Luckily my phones farely smart so I could get my mums work number along with our home number under ICE.
