Sorry to all that have had items or them selves damaged.
I learnt a bit about this stuff at the start of the year. The world is an amazing place that can f_ck shit up when it busts a nut.
Bricks are only good for axle stands when you only have two sissor jacks.
Take care all and get a wheel going.

We have frinds in Kaipoi who have new houses (3months old) that will need to be bulldozed and rebuilt.
Heart goes out to anyone who has suffered, and you guys at riverside. Think first thing i checked was my car.
Wish all these aftershocks would stop though

hope you guys at riverside are coping ok, sucks the major fat one living in a workshop, a couple of metrs off the ground when something like this happens, I was lucky as we still had power, but the workshop looked a bit like yours afterwards, we still living here though, and no major structual damage

We were in blenheim at the time but looks like were about to lose the chimney off the side of the house

i count myself and my cousin as some of the lucky ones. our place shook like fuck, especially upstairs, and the only damage caused was some scratched paint work, and a bit off spilled paint on my laurel. thank fuck

Not sure if this is going to help, but the NW winds have hit here......... So if you can secure things that you can.
