Shake, shake shake......

.....Shake, shake, shake
Shake your booty
Shake your booty

Ah, the chorus from that infamous late 1970s hit by K.C. and The Sunshine Band.

New Zealand has continued to be shaken by earthquakes - the latest was a magnitude 6 up north at not long after midnight. Apparantly felt in Wellington but not by me, and I was awake.

NZ get earthquakes all the time. I work on the theory that each is letting off the pressure and so far I've convinced myself!

Oh , and as from Today it is officially Springtime here!

Earthquakes seem to be your major nuisance. That aside, it´s metereological fall here! :-p Hugs to you, crawling for Garfield(Zebby) Propz Pilgrim

Could this be caused by Haka?

Too many gingerbread men doing the haka

John just read in USA Today that there was an earthquake in the NE corner of TN yesterday. We didn't feel that one - since we're not at home. LOL

Oh, great, you've stuffed disco into my poor tired brain. Thor hopes Zebby isn't disturbed by earthquakes too often, because Thor doesn't like natural disturbances, either.

Pilgrim - Zebby does the Garfield style appettite, thankfully he hasn'r discoverd coffee.

Urs and Priscilla - scary thought!

Aims - heavy snowfalls down South, we're fine here.

Mary - you two are very wise to have headed north, lol!

Marjie - apologies for inflicting that one on you, it had been stuck in my brain. Now, come on, Peter Frampton would have been worse!
