New Zealand quake

[syo]

I Just saw the news about the earthquake in New Zealand. Made me think of our markb. Not sure how far you are from Christchurch mark, but hope that all is ok for you and yours.

Haven't heard from Mark in a while. I hope he is ok, and also middle earth!

I'm many miles from Christchurch, I'm glad to say. Even slept through the shake which was felt around here. Only one fatality so far due to a heart attack. Two other serious injuries and most damage has been done to older buildings. Thank bureaucracy for our strict building codes :AOK

Chch city centre is likely to be closed for a while though.

Glad to hear it, mark. Yes, it was good to see there were no fatalities (from the debris anyway). In the news over here there were lots of pictures of damaged buildings and it looked pretty nasty. Didn't want anything to happen to you or especially your gear. ;)

Good to know you and yours are ok...!
