The chimney busted right through the wooden beam holding up the roof. I'm told it may an alarming noise.

MP Jim Anderton who is standing for Mayor of Christchurch in the coming local body elections (9th October) stands up to his chest in a crack in the road waving a sign that reads 'Jim Anderton for mayor' and yelling "I'm still here!'

Jim Anderton has rather faded out of the limelight by comparison.
