[cowboyz]

Wow. They're all so lucky, eh?

Not ideal no... but not the end of christchurch either!

Don't worry - I hear their pilot is from Afghanistan

... and they're moving the prisoners out of chch because the sprinkler system may not have enough water pressure to work in case of fire ... seems like a waste of resource to me, but hey

What happened to the "you made that bed, your gonna fucking lie in it now".
Crims shouldn't have sprinkler systems - that would stop them having prison fires.

If any of you are getting low on adrenaline....try being in the shower when a large aftershock hits.
Instant flashback to my yoof racing dinghys...spray in the face and wild motion.

I can beat that, on the throne at the time... the thoughts that go through the head

oh you..you just always have to be better than anybody else...your ego knows no bounds

Have your cats come home yet?

Yeah they turned up late Saturday night, looking very nervous. The slightest movement sees them out the cat door so damn fast!! They do seem to wander back in on a regular basis now though.

na Im serious, I was on the throne and a decent quake hit... tell ya what sitting low looking up at walls so close moving side to side it all became a blur, then the swede inguages gear and the bigest question I had was "do I wipe before pulling me tweeds up or is ther no time, just bolt"

eeek....I'm so pleased i'm not living it...I'm so ditzy and drama-ish I'd not cope. Must be damn hard to stay sane living there at the moment...Cantaberians are a mighty breed!

what... like you would wipe the wrong bum or something?

[Grumph]

Please define sane in these circs... when you go onto the geo site & find you were sitting over a 5.4 and a 4.7 is it paranoid to imagine something's out to get you ?
Should anyone else find themselves on the can in similar conditions I suspect one can waive the time wasting wipe....prioritise, people.
