Today was the first time I have been to the earthquake memorial since it was completed and opened on 22nd February 2017, six years after the devastating quake that killed the 185 that are named on this wall.
I knew two of the people on the list.
Text at top left reads 'Why Christchurch should have the World Cup' Following are four cameos that show tents representing 'Lots if low cost accommodation', 'Plenty of toilet facilities', 'aftershock home advantage' as the ball misses the goal post because it sways, and a 'free hard-hat with each ticket' Context - Anxiety about whether Christchurch can still hold the Rugby World Cup fixtures that are planned. A decision was made that it was not possible.
