I was having great fun exploring this wiki and, before adding my favourite television programme Packed to the Rafters, checked TVNZ’s webpage to make sure I had the title correct. Imagine my dismay when I saw their news headline ‘Auckland Zoo’s Kashin the elephant dies’. Kashin has been at Auckland Zoo forever … initially sponsored by Auckland Savings Bank – hence the name ‘Kashin’ … she has been dearly loved by all zoo visitors. Dear Kashin, we will all miss you so much. I have posted this photo on the NSL Learning Wiki in Kashin’s memory.

It was very sad - I was on holiday in Coromandel at the time with no TV, internet or newspapers. The one day we went to town was the day Kashin's death was reported, so I will always remember where I was.
I love 'Packed to the Rafters' -was tempted to enter the competition to move my 3 overstayers out! (they're Aussies too- hint, hint!)
