All okay here....
News will be filtering out to the World about a big earthquake in New Zealand.
It occurred down in the South Island. Was apparantly noticed in the lower North Island but not by me.
The Govy's Civil Defence procedures have kicked in promptly and the area down South has been declared a Civil Defence Emergency Zone. The worst I've heard is of items tumbling off shelves and power blackouts to a few hundred homes.
Tsunami warnings have been issued to try to keep people away from the western coastlines "just in case".
Mickle and Zebby are fine and are now heading to bed. Yes, we live way up high.
