That was my first thought/question when I heard about the earthquake as Tony is the only one I know in New Zealand.

I'm sure many list members join me in being happy to learn that you are okay and didn't suffer damage after we read the news about the earthquake in NZ.

No big jolts, just rolling and shaking. To hear it was large, about 130km north from here that explains it. Wellington CBD has been locked down, and while Welly is more then twice as far as from here, there have been large quakes in the north of the South Island, so that must be why they have had damage. Im not aware of any issues here, although all schools are closed for today (Monday) Its now 7-25am.
