So I was proof-reading an accountancy article today, when I saw this gem on the references.

First and last babies bid goodbye to hospital

Hazel St George Hampton, 82, and Leo Quake James Jones, 12 months, met to mark the end of an era yesterday as construction workers began demolishing the building where both were born.

The nuns had wanted Hampton's mother to name the baby after St George's to "note what had happened", she said. "And that's how I came to be called St George. I never used it when I was a child. I avoided it like the plague ... I felt it was quite a nice name in the end."

"Leo arrived on February 22, 2011, at 2.33am, the last baby to be born at the hospital after it had to be evacuated when the 12.51pm quake hit. "We said to the family as a joke we were going to call him Quake – and they would not let it go," Jones said."
