My thoughts are with you NZ brothers. I too hope Stu and family are AOK as I hope Brians are too along with any of the quiet type lurking in the background.

All my family are OK. We have been VERY lucky. The city centre has really been badly affected though. Most damage central and east side with many dead and missing. We are located on west side near airport and on much more "stable" ground thankfully, so damage minimal but shaken to bits!! 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.

Would like to think you are right about the aftershocks but somehow I think we will be having those for quite some time yet.
We were still getting small ones (before this) after the Sept 4 quake, so they just seem to go on and on. Can tell you we are well "over it"!!...................

I'm very pleased to hear that you and yours have come through physically unscathed. Our 'Kiwi cousins' will be in our prayers now and in the difficult days to come.
My very best Regards,
Norman.
