Another 5.0 today. Pretty soon, there won't be a Christchurch left.

it was a nice gentle wake-up. not as nasty as Monday's 5.6 & 6.3 (the've been revised up). My alarm goes off at that time of day anyway. Had a nice 4.6 at lunch. You get used to it. more or less. I'm lucky (so far). I live in the suburbs least affected and my work is also not affected.

I'm glad I don't live on the other side of town, near the sea, nor in the flash hill suburbs. The've been clobbered, hard, again. Bad liquifaction and collapsing cliffs/hills. Our nice old heritage buildings also got another clobbering on Monday.

Glad to hear you are okay, gnome. Stay safe.

I saw those pics of the houses on the cliff. Nasty.
