Caption reads: "People brought food to the area and we were grateful. It was a disaster but we were coping. Our house was broken but that didn’t mean we had to be."
Caption reads: "No, I don’t think they deliver the mail everyday. Not anymore."
Caption reads: "Yeah yeah, I know, but you’ve got to look. It’s incredible what’s happened to these places. It’s not something you see everyday and once it’s gone, it’s gone forever."
Caption reads: "You can’t do a thing about it but I can’t be bothered going house hunting. I’ll just live each day as best I can. I keep thinking it could change again. The dust here doesn’t bother me, the noise doesn’t bother me. When they start pulling down houses the vibrations don’t bother me. Nothing bothers me. We’re all like that. That’s how you have to be when you can’t do a thing about it."
Caption reads: "At the moment we’re trying to carry on like everything is normal. It’s not easy. It’s hard sometimes to remember what things were like before the earthquake."
Caption reads: "It used to be lovely. We would go out walking all the time and we always went through the wetlands. There was all the beautiful flax and bushes that were around the track, and now it’s gone. All gone."
Caption reads: "There’s nothing we can do about what we’ve lost. We just keep hoping for the best."
Caption reads: "At night we light up the house like a Christmas tree so that people know we’re here."
Caption reads: "We were the only people around here for a long time. All of our neighbours moved out. It wont be long until Bexley is empty, and after that it will be gone."
