Did you feel that??
 

I just felt a big shake in the house and the dog started barking. Went into the lounge and my son felt the same thing. He just texted his friends who felt it too... was it another small quake?? We are further down than Gisbourne - we are in Christchurch.. Didn't think we would get one here..

We're in Rangiora. Didn't feel anything!

No worries - it just the prelude to THE BIG ONE......................

Re: Did you feel that??
 

yay!! Been waiting for that. 60 years overdue isn't it?

Re: Did you feel that??
 

yes, just went downstairs and counted the gas cylinders again.........................;)

Re: Did you feel that??
 

we've got our emergency kit but I don't keep it all in one place as we'd be buggered if that one place was inaccessible, so I spread all the survival bits around different rooms and levels.

But seriously, it is a worry, especially when you think you may not all be at home together should it happen. I don't know what I'd do if I couldn't get to my kids or OH

Re: Did you feel that??
 

Yeah, I suppose you have to come up with a plan - we can't even find that yellow form and organising anything at the moment is a nightmare, so no chance of that before February :D

Re: Did you feel that??
 

Isn't the form / check list in the Yellow Pages? We regularly get them as mail shots. If I can find it, I'll post it on here. But not tonight!

Re: Did you feel that??
 

you're right - both our mailshot ones have been buried in paperwork somewhere. Hope the cooker, water and food dont go the same way should the next natural disaster be hereabouts.......:unsure:

Here is the link to the Emergency Planning document for the home

Just in case.

It is quite good as a checklist and information sheet. Hopefully none of us will ever have to use it, but it is good to be prepared.

I checked Geonet last night. Apparently yes there was one, 20km East of Christchurch, focal depth 15km, measuring 3.6, at 00.33.

It was just me falling out of bed..

Re: Did you feel that??
 

I am so glad, I thought it was, especially as my sons friends felt it too..mind you its a good job it was only 3.6 and most people were asleep..:ohmy:

Re: Did you feel that??
 

LOL, well after tonights session you will be falling into bed, see you then!! :p

Re: Did you feel that??
 

We felt it, I was just tucking into some pizza and watching Family Affairs on UK TV ( :o ) and my 17 yr old was on the loo so got a fright !
It sounded like a train going under the house - really loud
