Colombo Street between Moorhouse and Brougham is in a bad way. These are all closed; the shop at centre has collapsed.
Photograph captioned by Fairfax, "Nickie McFedries has had a bad run. Her Brittan Terrace house in Lyttelton has suffered extensive earthquake damage and now vandals have smashed up her car in the early hours of this morning".
Yes, it was a joke. The tours, that is, not the yard filled with earthquake-caused sand volcanos. They were very real. You can see one covering the driveway in this photo.
The signs read as follows.
"Tours run 1/2 hourly.
$5.25 admission.
Eftpos unavailable."
"If you think this is bad... you should see the back!"
