Sober reading

I know I haven't posted for a bit - life is quite busy :) I have a post compiled in my head - just need to get it down on the computer. Today though, I saw a message that I thought was exciting - they are opening up a public walkway to the Cathedral Square from Colombo Street in Cashel Mall. This is the route Lucy walked out of her school so I am quite keen to do this and see the cathedral and reenter the heart of our city.
I clicked onto the link for more details and was greeted with this as part of the information about the walk.
This is from CERA's website.

"It is your decision to enter the area. Read this first.

1. This space is still dangerous.
2. If there is an earthquake or other event you may be seriously injured or may not survive.
3. This is CERA space, not public space. There are conditions you must meet:

• maximum 300 visitors at any one time
• stay within the fences
• maximum visit duration 50 minutes - the walkway is cleared on the hour
• leave when asked
• no pets (guide dogs permitted)
• carry personal ID on your body, not in a bag
• wear sturdy shoes
• carry a charged cellphone or tell someone where you are going.

If there is an earthquake or other significant event:
Drop. Cover. Hold
Always follow the instructions of security personnel.

An emergency evacuation will be signalled by the constant sound of horns or sirens."

Wow! I know it is also for legal reasons but that is pretty sobering reading.
