Here we go again

Another big shake. Had the pleasure of being outside in the garden for this one, and seeing my dear little house shake like a decrepit old hut. No one told us about the aftershocks - now there have been about 2000 of them! Bloody hell, enough is enough. The Mayor of the city has instructed all of us loyal Christchurchians to inform the rest of the world that we're still here, and still open for business. It's true, there is still life as normal to be had here, most parts of the city don't look any different. You can still hear the bellbirds sing, and get the best coffee in the world outside Italy, to say nothing of the friendly people here. So you're all to visit, y'hear?
Went to the church fair, bought more books, more plants, as if I need any, and a really great 70's bead curtain for keeping the blowflies out of the kitchen. So many vibes in my house - retro 30's, 40's 50's 60's 70's, also an Indian theme, an English country theme, an Italian theme, Bali, Pasifika, Maori, its very eclectic and not at all boring.
Interesting to see from my stats that the most viewed pic on this blog is Noel's shoes!
