There is no water, no power and he must use the toilet across the road. When a quake hits the house shakes and cracks appear on the walls. There is no water, no power and he must use the toilet across the road. I have to get water from the local church to make a cup of tea and use of other things. But according to this Tuhoe descendant it's been six months since inspectors have come to check the house and they've had no response since. This family is very concerned. We still wait.
