Apparently doorways are reallly dangerous places to go, so is under tables. Best place is to lie on the ground right up against a couch or bed, cos they will protect you more if furniture/ceilings etc are falling. ]]> Fri, 21 Dec 2007 10:34:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13112&PID=265710&title=we-just-had-an#265710 <![CDATA[We Just Had an... : we felt it here in Napier too,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13112&PID=265695&title=we-just-had-an#265695 Author: My3Sons

We were making the ground shake all on our own... no, not in that way!!!

rang the inlaws - the warehouse is a complete mess, central town is cordoned off, including PNS, so hope everyone has done their xmas shopping. A few buildings have collapsed in the centre - i know them but you all probably wouldn't - AND apparently the bar where DH used to work and where the guy was an arse, cordoned off and slightly damaged - justice at last!]]> Fri, 21 Dec 2007 07:52:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13112&PID=265632&title=we-just-had-an#265632 <![CDATA[We Just Had an... : was just thinking that.. lol though...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13112&PID=265604&title=we-just-had-an#265604 Author: mum2paris
