My daughter was in tears when I collected her from school.  Many children were upset or just pale and quiet.
Back to square one again with standing outside the toilet.
We are all totally drained this time round.  Our spirits are at rock bottom as we were still getting over the September quake.

... did you mean this one Ann  :-\  http://www.christchurchquakemap.co.nz/

No, but similar.

Hope that works. If not, google Christchurch, NZ click maps and you should see what I mean.

This is why I was nearly a widow yesterday.
Hubby was under the racks and had only just got out when the quake started
