Wow, glad to hear everyone is ok so far. Seems like this one was alot worse because of the time it struck. Quite a few fatalities already reported.

I just got home from SIT. The earthquake hit when we were in class and half of us spent it watching news about the earthquake on youtube, twitter, facebook and CNN.

Southland has lost its 111 service, eftpos is mostly down and 3g is currently down. I think all services have been diverted to Christchurch to help.

Hope you guys are all okay!

phone networks are apparently congested, people are being advised to send txt's instead of calling to cut down on traffic.

That may not be Grim's landline any more either, I think they're mid move.
He was at Uni, his wife may have been at work also.

Apparently the infrastructure is based in Christchurch, and got a bit dominated.

You parents (depending on where they were at the time) are probably ok. House might be a bit weaker than it was though. I had to drive through that area on the way home.
The 'burbs seemed fine, but there was a lot of 'sand volcanoes' and burst watermains under the roads. Keep trying man.

Yeh, quite sure it's changed since then, probably a few times.
He works in a dangerous part of town too... I hope he's ok.

He's not talking about the same church.

65 confirmed dead so far. Still expected to go up though :/

Omg 65 dead. That's worse that the Wahine Disaster. Such a tragic day in New Zealand history.

Thanks for that thought Pyro, realy appreciate it feeling sick with worry here.  No-one I am trying to ring seems available.

Watched some videos on stuff and still feel sick...Think they are removed now but showed dead bodies in the street.

Best wishes all.
