7/9/10 - I have just been talking to my friend, who is a plumber in Christchurch, and he has been VERY busy since Saturday fixing people's water cylinders and pipes. He is going to have a lot of work on for a long time now! This is great for him, especially after the recession. The media are calling this the silver lining for some people. I wonder who can write a list of other people's occupations that will have a lot of work on because of the earthquake? 9/9/10-I was awake when it happened all my sheets fell off my bed so i went to put them on when it struck.Rhiannon.

12/9/10- On Saturday the 3rd of September 2010 I woke up at one of the earliest times ever! At 4:35am I woke up to a MASSIVE earthquake ( Ok so I guess 4:35 isn't that early seeing I woke up at 12:30 the other day! ) The bed was shaking and I guess I have to admit I was scared. Although it was scary here, I know Christchurch had it worse! I think it was very lucky that my Uncle and Auntie just sold there home in Christchurch and moved to Aussie in the week of the quake but one of my other Uncles and Aunties were in Christchurch and were waiting for a cab to take them to the airport when it struck!!!!!

The earthquake was 7.1 on the rictor scale and its the same size of 67 atom bombs going off 10 km under ground. Josh
