Earthquake in Auckland
Did anyone else feel the 2.9 jolt 15 minutes ago? My bed was jolted for a few seconds and a loud rumble that lasted for just a few seconds too

Re: Earthquake in Auckland
I saw this in stuff.com and thought - are Aucklanders getting pissed off at all the attention Christchurch is getting or something?
Sheesh - 2.9???!!!

Re: Earthquake in Auckland
No-one else felt it up there and my brother never felt it in Albany either. It felt like a truck had driven into my house and a big roll of thunder right behind it! Weird, and over in about 3 seconds.
Can't blooming sleep - and no not because of earthquakes! I'm more panicky about earthquakes triggering volcanic action now...
haha
