Hope you Gizzy ladies are all ok
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.

Well we DEFINATLEY felt it! Was increadibly scary,...seemed to go on forever. We are all ok, but our ceilings are cracked, hot water cylinder and toilet leaking, and heaps of smashed stuff in the kitchen. Lucky I wasnt in bed, the chest of drawers tippe over on my side, and jewlery box etc that was on top all flew onto the bed. Eeek!
Isla slept through the whole thing!
ETA- We had no power for ages either. Have felt after shocks, and already had another powercut this morning. |
wow Kellz I hope everything is getting back to semi normal without the after shocks. Pretty big earth quake it was 6.8.
