    Just a big rolly one in Wanaka, interesting the house moved north south then east west, it went on for 2-3 minutes, blinding banging and lights swinging but no damage at all here.

    Talked to bro in Kaiapoi, not so good there.

    Thoughts go with you lads, hope your families are all safe.
    Cheers Andi & Ellen

    1/2 Hour News reports on TV1 all day today. I have my girls living in Christchurch, one in Woodend and they are ok. Thats a big shake! I remember working in Kinlock (Taupo) when the Edgecome quake happened and felt from there.
    Stay safe guys.

    Felt it in the 'Naki

    It was strong enough to wake us in North Taranaki. Gentle rolling and the usual thoughs of whether it was just a smallish local one or the fringe of a biggie. Student stepson in Chch begrudgingly woke at 6.30 to answer his cellphone so all well for him. Our thoughts are with those affected.

    Chch Earthquake

    Felt it this morning here in Nelson. Hope all the chch riders are safe & their houses undamaged.
    & their adv bikes (don't really care about bikes but thought I'd better add bike content).

    If anyone down there needs anything let us know.

    Not called the Shaky Isles for nothing. And the big one is yet to come.
