Much more damage than the original 7.1 which we had on Sept 4 last year, as this one was very shallow.....
Your concerns are greatly appreciated thanks.

I'm very pleased to hear that you and yours have come through physically unscathed. Our 'Kiwi cousins' will be in our prayers now and in the difficult days to come.
My very best Regards,
Norman.
