Oh me Dave just glad you all are okay. Thanks for taking these pictures as I
am sure it was not easy doing it and not dealing with the emotions that goes
along with seeing all the damage.

Subject: Photos from my neighbourhood in Christchurch

Nothing as striking as what you're seeing in the media, but this is what our
local neighbourhood looks like along with a few pics of my house.

Just heard on the radio now that the Hotel Grand Chancellor, our tallest
hotel, is at risk of collapse.  Apparently it's leaning and that lean may be
worsening.  That's quite a big building and if it goes it's going to cause
absolute carnage in the surrounding area.  I don' t know which way it's
leaning... it it goes the "right" way it'll fall into a fairly open space
with much less collateral damage.  They're urgently evacuating a two block
radius.  There are only search & rescue teams in that area so it's not as
big a job as it sounds.  But another small aftershock could be all it takes
to set it off.
