I'm in Whenuapai. I was sitting here at my PC, MSNing a mate on the North Shore. We both felt it at the same time.

And paturoa posted another thread at about the same time I did.

21st February 2007, 21:01

As long as the earthquakes keep happening we're all ok. It's when there hasn't been one for a while that you worry!

Here in Wellington there is a phenomenon I call the 'Wellington pause'. When a quake happens, everyone pauses what they are doing - waits to see how big it's gonna get - and then within a couple of seconds life resumes again, often with no more than a flippant "it's only a small one". Quite peculiar.

At M4.5 it was only a small one. It possibly felt worse than it was because it was quite shallow. Most of the siesmic drums didn't even register it.

Pimple?? more like a festering boil!!!! I'm hoping that the big one will ease the realestate market I may be able to buy some cheap land on the fault line and sell it for a profit a few years down the track!
Hopefully when the ground opens up it will be during a realestate conference and all realestate fuckers will be swallowed up by the very earth they have poisoned!!!
Have fun in Auckland hopefully the next quake will loosen the caps on your volcanoes then we can all have a good laugh!!!!!

When I lived in Wellington years ago I was working in a shop
in Aro st (?) one day at work it felt like this huge lorry truck
had just driven past the shop (a blimmin long lorry truck!) - the whole shop was shaking.

Then next thing the guy on the radio said "Waow we were a rockin and
a rollin there for a moment guys" then he went on to talk about other stuff like announcing the next song etc

At that moment I realized earthquake shudders were all very "normal" for Wellington as it was obviously no big deal! - any shakes after that never phased me.

One woman, who had been reclining on her couch, spilt sauvignon blanc on her pants.

I'm confused, 95% of aucklanders probably haven't experienced an earthquake before, so it is big news for us.

We realise Wellingtonians are used to them, but so what?

Next time any of you lot do something exciting and want to talk about it, let me know because I've probably already done it and I can tell you how precious you're being.

You might be onto something, the earthquake was followed by a rather sticky white rain.......

I see the problem. Squirrels are a "new" organism under the provisions of the Hazardous Substances and New Organisms Act and therefore prohibited until consented by ERMA. Where are MAF's eradicators when you need them?
