Hi all, My wife was on the Navy ship HMNZS Canterbury which was moored in Lyttleton harbour, Lyttleton is a small fishing village 10KM away from Christchurch and is where the earthquake centred. She said the force of the quake out in the water was amazing so what people felt on land must have been terrorfying.
My thoughts are with all my friends who live in Christchurch and now all my Army friends who have gone down to assist with the rescue efforts. Steve

Re Lyttleton; with them being the epicenter I'm surprised this didn't seem to generate tidal wave issues. The town has some bad damage there too, we're just getting some coverage as of yesterday. I hadn't realized but with the power cut off in Christchurch as the height of the problem, nobody down there has a working TV to keep up to date, for a day or two folks in the UK might know more about it than locals do.
Good on the Navy, they've been showing the crew making masses of meals for the town, much appreciated I'm sure.
