More than two years after his disappearance, his parents Thierry and Catherine Rolland have finally arrived from France.
They do not know what happened to their son, and they’re desperate for answers.
“We don’t know what’s happened,” Catherine said. “We realise he is perhaps in another place.”
But the couple remain hopeful that Eloi is alive and well and said they would always be there for him.

And as I can’t read the message the red 1 for “unread messages” might stay forever.
Of course I can’t reply either, so the person sending it might even consider me very rude for simply ignoring her.

During winter, a bed is a sanctuary from the cold – and diseases that come with it. A bed for Ben, and tamariki like him, would mean a warm and good night's sleep so they can stay healthy and concentrate at school.
With your support, we aim to provide 1,100 children with beds and warm bedding. Donate today to provide beds and bedding for Kiwi kids.

But Balenciaga is the new kid on the block - and it shows. If you want the ULTIMATE in destroyed shoes then I have something for you. For the real connoisseur only.
And yes, I'm still wearing them - so by the time the auction finishes they will be even more destroyed and valuable!
And starting at a farcical $1 only - with the proceeds going to humanitarian help for Ukraine.
P.S. I had ordered a replacement online from a big retailer in NZ - but they were such poor quality that I had to return them …
P.P.S. Oops - forgot the link: www.trademe.co.nz...
It’s new and it’s beautiful.

More than 150 millimetres of water covered West Auckland during the August flood and the nearby Upper Huia Dam went from 45% capacity to overflowing in the span of only four hours.
The independent report was commissioned by Te Atatū MP Phil Twyford, who hired two experts on flood control to work on the report.
The experts found on the night of August 30 when the heavy rain struck, flooding at the Waimoko Stream, which flows through Swanson and Rānui, was exacerbated by blockages down the stream and in the culverts.
