A rather large earthquake hit gisbourne which is lower middle of the north island where i live, it is about five hours drive away, it was a big un, 6.8,the CBD is in a mess, shops windows shattered and some buildings collasped,just a few days before xmas, not good, please give some thought and prayers for these NZer's, so far only one death which was an elderly lady,sad, but it is good news that no-one else died or were injured in such a big quake, it is a bit scarey,let us hope there are no more eh.
