Interesting news.
As I was sitting at my computer this morning, we got hit by an earthquake. The whole house was shaking.
It was a very disconcerting feeling.

I saw that online today. I experienced one in the late nineties. I’d only recently moved into my new house and it was late winter. It was about 9pm so all the curtains were closed. There was an old deck and pergola which joined the back of the house. I was on my own back then. There were two really long deep rumbles / vibrations about 30 seconds apart. It sounded like the pergola roof rattling. I thought it was thunder! I went to bed and when I woke up it was all over the news that a minor earthquake hit Canberra the previous night.

The earthquake even made the news here in Sydney Eddie.

We have 2 daughters in Maroochydore, and one was working with her disabled client when it happened, she said it was extremely scary

I couldn't work out what was going on.
It's hard to believe the house could shake so much.
But I've had the grandkids and my daughter staying with me this weekend.............and the house is such a mess, toys and drawings everywhere.
I blame the earthquake.

lol at the kids mess. By the sounds of it my little experience was nothing compared to what you experience. I’m glad we don’t live in NZ or Japan or any of those other countries where earthquakes are just a part of life,

Oh no Renty, I've finally caught you out.
You were supposed to say "It's been proven ants have a highly structured and intelligent society , the last place they'd go is discos"

I was just cutting to the chase Eddie. I like boobs!

That's perfectly cool.
No way I could argue with that.
