Text reads 'ROCK STAR' and below is an image of a large rock named 'Rocky'. Context - When a 25-tonne boulder crashed through the garage roof of Phil Johnson's home and left it in ruins during the Christchurch earthquake of 22 February he sold it at an online auction for NZ$60,500 (#27,652). Mr Johnson dubbed it "Rocky". The money will be used to help quake victims.

A cheerful old woman sits with a cup of tea on her sofa watching television with an enormous boulder beside her. She says 'Big and solid it reminded me of my late husband but then I realized that in two weeks it hasn't once broken wind, belched or called for a beer, or gone and changed the channel and I think I'm in love!' The little Evans man says 'Stone me!' Context - The Christchurch earthquake of 22 February 2011. Some people remain cheerful and optimistic in spite of dreadfully difficult conditions.
