Toll now up to 123 with still a couple of hundy unaccounted for. Some of these are possible among the unidentified dead. Kia kaha Christchurch.

Finally you turn up Larry, I thought I was going to have to join the 30 staff we are sending down there to run your prisons just to get a chance to look for you!

Stay drunk, stay away from tall anythings, move, send me your bikes for safe keeping!

My thoughts and prayers go out to all affected by this.

All best wishes to you and yours and all there affected by this tragedy. Take care, best wishes and be safe.

All the best to whom who have lost dear ones. My thoughts are with them.

It wondered in my mind how the Britten motorcycle museum has suffered. It is located in Christchurch. Have very great respect for what John Britten has done during his too short lifespan.

Hush · « **Reply #62 on:** February 27, 2011, 12:14:21 PM »

If that museum is in the central city Voxonda then it is probably in ruins, the whole centre of Christchurch looks like Dresden during the war.

powers on now

the roads are pretty buggered, the whole of the CBD is still locked down, might be out for a few months, not that theres much left. I know of a stash of 70's Honda parts that the demo crews should be carefull around.

damn aftershocks, banged my toe on the door running outside when I heard the last one coming, sounded like a train coming up the road.

Stay safe mate....

My thoughts are with you buddy, this is a modern day horror story unfolding ever so slowly.

scunny · « **Reply #66 on:** March 02, 2011, 08:00:23 PM »

to stay sane, going away for the weekend on the bike. not riding it around here with the roads all buggered and the choking dust.
Life for the lucky goes on, the chances of anyone else being pulled out of the rubble is slim. enjoy life while you have it people.

Amen to that, Scunny....

Has anyone heard from Toycollector?. How did the bikes stand up. Any damage?

Hush · « **Reply #69 on:** March 03, 2011, 01:10:36 AM »

I'm sure he is from that area, I remember seeing it in his sig. $:-\$
About 30% of Christchurch still has no power and also he probably has more important things on right now down there.
Wish I could ride with you Scunny, now that would be a hoot.

Hush · « **Reply #70 on:** March 04, 2011, 10:40:27 PM »

Sheet!!! I just found out my older brother Jeff was in central Christchurch when the big one struck.
He was in a shop that collapsed, he said there are many dead people under the bricks in Sydenham which is an area we don't seem to hear much about on the news so maybe there is a reason the authorities are keeping it quiet.
I'm glad he's safe, when the quake struck I was just thanking luck that none of my family live down there, huh little did I know eh!

Gaither · « **Reply #71 on:** March 05, 2011, 06:06:53 PM »

Hush

Man, close call for your brother! 'Very glad he was OK.

You may be right about 'em trying to keep it quiet.

no conspiracy going on, just a lot of damage.
areas or buildings are graded by definition.
#1 poked not looking good
#2 munted pretty well shagged
#3 #$%*ed pretty well shagged and not looking good

BeSeeingYou · « **Reply #73 on:** March 08, 2011, 10:05:06 PM »

I read that large parts of Christchurch may have to be abandoned. The quake has damaged the ground so much that it is unstable and unsuitable for building on. (soil liquefaction)

scunny · « **Reply #74 on:** March 09, 2011, 09:19:26 AM »

rumour has it that a 1/3 of buildings in the central business area are destroyed and about 10,000 homes will have to be pulled down. some suburbs wont be rebuilt on. the dust from the liquification is terrible.
