I've got a workmate who's from Christchurch and she's renting out her house whilst she lives in Australia for work.

When I heard "Christchurch" Leigh, I knew that you were talking about moving back there when we had a beer in Brissie last year in September.

Melbourne had a small earthquake back on March and it felt like a train rumbling past. Judging by how the Richter Scale works, yours would definitely have been 10,000 times stronger. Goddamn!

This was like a train nudging the house from the side repeatedly for a minute.

Wow I hadn't even heard about this! Some of those photos look quite messy - that beamer copped it. Hope everyone's all good.

Just had a pair of 5.2 and 5.4 aftershocks.

That 5.4 at 11:30 nearly had me running for a doorway again!

Seriously, your town is kinda fucked up it seems Looks just as bad as Newcastle did back in '92 (iirc).

Guys - I'm coming over to Christchurch in a couple of weeks, I'll bring a shovel, hammer and nails! Seriously though, good to hear everyone is ok, looks pretty full on, went through Cyclone Larry up in Cairns a few years back, nature can unleash some scary s#$t.

 

[CLuTZ]

Earthquakes in Wellington and the Hawkes Bay too!
