A nice little wobbly number just then (11.10am) prompted me to go to the Geonet website and check – it was a 4.9 in the middle of the Cook Strait again – or, as Geonet say, 30km east of Seddon. There’s something big going on down there, even if the one remaining resident of Seddon could only just be bothered to report it in.

Apparently it is leaning in an alarming manner – anything off vertical rings alarm bells in our vertically oriented city – and this last remnant of the 80s is due to be axed.

We have quite a bit of plaster and paint dust in the church but we will be getting to work to clean that all up in the morning. There are a few surface areas of damage but nothing structural and we are delighted that the building which was strengthened in 2007 behaved exactly as it should have.
