Christchurch

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I have family there. Thankfully they're ok, though in the city centre at the time.

Cousin says aunty and uncle will have to go to other cousins as there is no power or water. Took them hours to get home as fallen rocks had blocked all the roads. They were at a petrol station when it happened. am trying not to think about what could have. .. Waah. Failed.
