Hi Quads,

I heard about the latest quakes on the news this morning.  They said some structures that were deemed still safe after the main quake have now been damaged by these latest two to the point of being beyond repair.  I imagine you have probably decided to just keep everything on the floor........

Glad to hear from you , Quads. Ro Allen, a wizop on Compuserve, posted about it earlier today. She's not right in the middle of it luckily.

Glad the PC is on wheels, and yeah stuff is broken Oh Well, never a dull moment in CHCH

the 5.5 shake has been upgraded to 5.6 and the 6.0 shake has been upgraded to 6.3

 I feel considering the positioning point of where they live; " At the Crosshair of four Techtonic Plates beneath them"- That are deciding all too move again, I feel sorry for them knowing there is still a bumpy road ahead of them too!...
