A view after the 6.3 magnatude quake hit Christchurch 22 February 2011.
As time drifts by, more quickly now it seems!
Somewhere inside of me youth still lingers,
I’m still chasing dreams and butterflies
And gazing at rainbows in wonder!
For I believe youth never fades
In the eyes of those who can see
From the inside out!
From a poem by Annab...
Silt from liquefaction on a driveway and road. A road cone marks out the uneven road and a piece of board creates a temporary ramp from the driveway out onto the road.

The cartoon shows one car heading out of Christchurch and another heading into Christchurch. Two roadsigns read 'Earthquake refugees heading out of Christchurch' and 'Motorist refugees heading to Christchurch for cheap petrol'. Context - many people are leaving Christchurch after the 22 February earthquake but others are coming into Christchurch to benefit from cheap fuel.

In the top frame a man reads a newspaper report that says 'Govt to buy up red stickered homes' and shouts 'That's it - I'm out!' His mate comments that he thought it was his neighbour's house that was munted and that his house was ok. In the lower frame the first man says 'That's right... and I don't want to live next door to a politician?!' Context - A report released 23 June 2011 has divided quake-hit Canterbury into four zones with those in the worst affected residential red zone offered cash to move out. The man in the cartoon thinks that the government is buying up the houses so that politicians can live in them.
