An entry from Jennifer Middendorf's blog for 2 January 2012 entitled, "Yeah, we get it, it's not over yet".
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."
An entry from Jennifer Middendorf's blog for 11 August 2012 entitled, "It lives!".
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: "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."
Photograph captioned by BeckerFraserPhotos, "The Edmonds Clock on Oxford Terrace looks quite unlike itself, but at least it is being protected while it is repaired".
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: "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."
Photograph captioned by BeckerFraserPhotos, "The future of Calendar Girls is uncertain, because although it survived the earthquakes well, it is now within the zone called 'The Frame' and may not be deemed to be a suitable use for that zone".

A photograph captioned by BeckerFraserPhotos, "This photo epitomises aspects of many homes in the residential red zone. A home that used to be lovely once upon a time, and now is just a broken house, with indicators of the care once lavished upon it by the family that owned it in the rose bush still flowering by the door. Seabreeze Close, Bexley".
Caption reads: "I lived in London all through the Blitz, you get used to these things. Living here after the earthquakes didn’t bother me. I had a small battery operated radio and the neighbour lent me her generator. Initially I used it to run the fridge but after a while I couldn’t get it started. I don’t want to move, to be quite honest. There’s nothing that will be able to replace the life I built here."
Caption reads: "We have always been a hidden treasure in this city and it’s sad to say goodbye."
