36 more quakes in the past 24 hours but it's been quiet in the last 6 hours of that time. The last one was about 1:35am and it's now getting-up time so I guess they'll be getting some sleep.
But they're still getting them over 4 on the Richter scale.
People who had cars in driveways (or on the streets) had chimneys and other brickwork thrown down on them. Squish!
The people who originally came to NZ - ie first the polynesians and then Europeans, had no idea there were giant plates underneath them.
They do now!
Anyone else want to come and live here? There's a healthy folk scene!
