At around 11-30pm there was a cluster of earthquakes - two over magnitude five, including one at 11.40 which registered 5.4, that's equal to the strongest aftershock felt on Saturday afternoon.
The Minister for Earthquake Recovery, Gerry Brownlee, says the recovery process from Canterbury's earthquake is moving quickly, despite strong aftershocks yesterday setting back repair work.
While it's going to take several years and millions of dollars to repair earthquake damage, the Christchurch Arts Centre can count its lucky stars and look ahead to making the historic building better and stronger.
