We get quakes here in the UK. Have had several in our area over the years. One time the house 'lifted' then settled with a sort of big sigh.

eek - thats no good, Gwyneth & Ronald - high winds seem to cause more trouble here that the earthquakes, though there was a bad one in Napier - 1930 ish and i about 1 hour from us in the '70s we werent living here then.

PS - just did a google search of Napier and it was 1931
