Nope and thank god I didn't hate them with a passion and I don't live that far from the fault line (but I have other issues with that living here). ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

I felt it! God I hate them!! Checked out the geonet website and it was 4.8 and was centred 20km north of Wellington.
Freaks me out how many there have been lately, Hopefully these small ones in NZ will relieve some pressure or something on the plates so we don't get a BIG one!! But I don't actually know if that is possible or not... am considering sorting out a survival kit though -------------

I'm a bit weird - I really like earthquakes!  That was a good one - the couch shook but it can't have lasted more than 5 seconds-------------
