    It's 11:51 am here . . . in exactly 1 hours time, we will stop and remember a moment that changed my life forever . . .

    Gillian Needham

    Chrictchurch at 12:58 pm 22/02/2011 . . . 7 minutes after a 6.3 quake struck at 5km deep directly beneath the city.

    RIP to my friends Dominic and Woodsy . . . and the 183 others. We won't ever forget you . . . or that day you perished.

    Last year was a tough year for earthquakes. NZ sits on the same ring of fire line as Japan. Every time the earth yawns, some of us suffer. Sorry about your friends, Sizemik...

    what language was the mayor speaking in the video?

    He introduced his address in the native Maori . . . our second official language.

    Thanks for your support everyone . . . this is a more difficult day than I thought.
