He's still in Christchurch (his most recent posts certainly indicate as much). He moved over here at one point, but he returned to NZ very shortly afterward. Hopefully he and his family and friends are okay.
I really have no words for this. It's just heartbreaking.
Hi.
Yes, still live in Christchurch. Currently holidaying in Surfers Paradise till next Wednesday.
Holidaying. Yeah. Went to Draculas last night as part of our prepaid package. Me and my mate left half way through it. This does not feel like a holiday anymore.
Loved ones are fine. Not easy getting thru to anyone at the moment.
What I'm seeing on sky news is absolutely gutting. I feel like I should be there. The loss of life and the scale of destruction will have an irrevocable impact on the city. This will define Christchurch. The Cathedral is gone - doesn't get more iconic than that.
From our contact with loved ones properties are fucked everywhere.
All too much. This will not be easy. Time for courage.
Take your time buddy, much of the city is being evacuated mainly because it's unliveable. If there isn't any reason to return other than to return, stay put. I would love to jump in the car and drive up to help but it's not feasible.
