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.

Really relieved to hear you and you're family are ok mate, thanks for taking a mo' to let us know.
Hope to god that there's no more aftershocks or quakes.
We're with you in spirit buddy.

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"!!...................
