Question about the amount of quakes, is the reason there are so many aftershocks because the ground has moved and now its settling back down?

Quote from: Hav0k;1307740
No, the aftershocks you are currently experiencing is the surrounding bedrock and (potentially) other faults readjusting to the initial quake.

Quote from: Fran O\'Sullivan
The best thing about Finance Minister Bill English\'s latest Budget is that it does finally signal a much greater role for the private sector in the New Zealand economy. And another step along the way to extract this country from the political cul-de-sac in which Helen Clark\'s Labour Government parked us.

OK so the structural engineer comes around at 6 pm and after a good look through basically said OMFGWTF are you living here for get the fuck out!!!

So we're off to a motel. We won;t know for sure yuntil full assessment, but I may well have spent my last night sleeping in this house.

Off to the Best Western Clyde for a week while we look for rental accommodation.

Wish us luck.!!
