Much more damage than the original 7.1 which we had on Sept 4 last year, as this one was very shallow.....
Your concerns are greatly appreciated thanks.

Glad to hear you are Okay, Stu. I just saw the news on the TV and thought of you. As echoed above and below, our thoughts and prayers are with all those affected.
