Hoo-ee talk about dodging a bullet Ōtautahi!!
Wondering why your bins are still standing? Central Christchurch appears to have been spared the worst.
Did Christchurch dodge a bullet? City calm as winds funnel around it

Feels like overkill but I'm in & from Ōtautahi so I've seen earthquakes, terrorist attacks, and a pandemic so just used to preparing for the worst
Not sure where my solar + hand crank radio is though

This is sad news for Ōtautahi. Whenever people were emailing their MPs to urge them to advocate for justice I never had to, Duncan was always openly fighting our corner anyway.

Otautāhi folk, how's the weather where you are?
Aside from the occasional gust and shower it's very calm in Sydenham.
Have we got off lightly?

Okay, yeah, it's picking up in Ōtautahi. Still pretty safe compared to Pōneke and Ōtepoti though.

for some reason this is fucking me up way more than i expected. this is where the house i used to live in with my family when i first moved to ōtautahi used to be. i lived there for about five years, mum and sister and little niece a bit longer than that. weird. 🥺

Also in and from Ōtautahi and this evening I also pondered the current location of my solar/hand crank radio.
Didn't get as far as actually looking for it though. Reckon I have a few hours of daylight tomorrow before the wind really blows

Ōtautahi Christchurch. Labour funded it, did all the design work, and then Simeon scrapped it. Lots of community and Labour lobbying and it's now a 'new money' project funded by National that we should be grateful for 🤷🏻♀️

Really enjoying my time in Ōtautahi and I'm getting in a mega tonne of steps. Did the city tram loop today and tomorrow afternoon, I'll take a ride on the gondola.
The rebuild looks outstanding!
