Boomerang,the earthquake was centred 50 km off Gisborne,so I never felt it at all.You probably get earthquakes over there in Aussie.

Aidan, jokes aside, my post was out of concern, and for you to tell us about it...It wasn't just about you...even though I am happy you are ok...

And no I never felt an earthquake in Melbourne...We had a slight tremour 30 years ago, but most people didn't even notice it...

Kafenes,earthquakes are natural events that occur quite frequently in New Zealand,but very seldom does a killer earthquake occur.

I have never experienced an Earthquake, I cannot imagine what they are like! My sisterinlaw lives in upper Paphos and they had a pretty big one several years ago. She said it was very scary and NOISY.
