How is life one year after the quake? Has much of the city recovered?

"He's alright" - Just a quick question... was that a baby crib you pointed the camera at when you said that?

[DrLeavingsoon]

@jbpnw yes - we sited his room in a strong hold . I was alone so rushed Gordon out to the garage during the first quake, re-entered the house and grabbed a camera when the aftershock hit.

I checked into each room -at that time filled with flying debris- and started to enter Liam's room when I realised that it alone was withstanding the shocks and he was still asleep!! I checked on Gordon and then returned to shift Liam outside and put up our tent.

Of all our rooms, Liam's was untouched and ok:)

@DrLeavingsoon Babies are great. When we (adults) are flipping out, they are oblivious... thankfully.

got baby formula delivered and have water for one week and a full tank of petrol for the 1942 Willys Jeep, so we're going to be okay for the worst time.

Just saw this on ABC24 News. Hope everything is well

@YouthUnemployed yeah we're all good here, but water is becoming an issue
