Yip yip all good down here.

Got woken up by a good couple of rumbles and the house rattling - biggest one I've had since I landed. Nothing has fallen over or got damaged that I can see in our house and reports are that there's no damage elsewhere from what I read.

Keep coning Christchurch :D

Posted in the Chch thread, but it was just another rattler - nothing serious, but a good one nonetheless. Had to be interesting in Rolleston as it was just south of there. Just shy of my 4.6 record set last November.

That was the first quake I have felt since April, and the first over 4 for a good while, so things are still trending quieter long term which is good for all here.

Fairly sure that was wobble number 2... it's quite exciting when they're small and no-one gets hurt. But maybe I'm just odd. I expect it'll become old hat soon.

I slept through it, only knew about it when I got to work and there was talk. I think our bodies must get used to it, maybe our brains just think we're on a boat now so no reason to fuss lol
