Hey Guys, footage coming out of NZ, city looks like a bomb was dropped onto the city, it looks a mess. Just seconds ago a report of a large number of fatals, another sad day of mother nature, this really does have to be the worst year for disasters.  If any of our beddy mates are caught up in this latest turmoil, our thoughts are with you and your families.

the 7.1 quake that hit Christchurch in September caused damage but no deaths, this 6.3 one was only 5k down and 65 dead so far, they fear it may double

thoughts are with the folks down that way

There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"

Just before this happened my mate in Carnarvon sent me some pic's of the dam he has had to build around his house with his bobcat to keep the water out, what's the world up to?

I was on holiday in Christchurch on Boxing Day when the last after shocks hit, feeling the walls and grounds shake in our hotel. This one is significantly worse. Christchurch is such a beautiful city with very warm, friendly and genuine people. I see why we aussies call you our neighbours and our family. Our thoughts are with you all in New Zealandand with your recovery. Adrian.
