We have a forum member in Christchurch NZ

Some things just can't be placed elsewhere. Have you been speeding and got fined? Or spotted a nice new Volvo on the web somewhere? All non-480 messages can be posted in this part of the board.

I was shocked to see the devastation on the news this morning, unbelievable, the mere idea to be trapped under a desk with piles of rubble on top of youm terrifying. :?
