The earth quake

Some of you have emailed about the earth quake.

It was a 6.8 magnitude quake, occuring near Gisborne in the north island. Blenheim is a long way from there, so although I felt the quake about 9 last night, it didn't feel like a big one. The extensive damage is not in the Blenheim area.
