Eq200
- Eye of the Fish
- There have been hundreds of earthquakes, if not thousands, in the days following last week’s Seddonator (TM name courtesy of Eye of the Fish, conflation of Seddon and Dominator). A nice little wobbly number just then (11.10am) prompted me to go to the Geonet website and check – it was a 4.9 in the middle of the Cook Strait again – or, as Geonet say, 30km east of Seddon. There’s something big going on down there, even if the one remaining resident of Seddon could only just be bothered to report it in.

Liftshaft
- Eye of the Fish
- Looks like Luke’s Lane Liftshaft is likely to lay down after a long period of lonesome inactivity. Apparently it is leaning in an alarming manner – anything off vertical rings alarm bells in our vertically oriented city – and this last remnant of the 80s is due to be axed.

Earthquake Update
- St Andrews on the Terrace Presbyterian Church
- St Andrew's was closed today (Monday) but we have been given the OK by our engineer from Opus International and are pleased to announce that we will be open tomorrow as usual. We have quite a bit of plaster and paint dust in the church but we will be getting to work to clean that all up in the morning. There are a few surface areas of damage but nothing structural and we are delighted that the building which was strengthened in 2007 behaved exactly as it should have.
