Earthquake! [updated 5.08pm]


"There has just been and earthquake. However, this building is earthquake proof. Be sure to turn off the electric range and beware of falling objects. Open the front door to your apartment and stay away from all windows. If you're in the elevator please get off at the next floor."

Didn't even feel it. But feeling a little nervous right now. There was another earthquake earlier in the day too, while I was at work (didn't feel that either). Nothing seemed to move in the apartment (not even the hanging lightshade above the table). The scary intercom system won't shut up though!

The elevators will be out of order for the next half hour or so now (judging by what happened after the last earthquake earlier in the week).

This place is worse than Wellington!

"May I have your attention please. We have just broadcast an earthquake alarm. It was an operational error. Not earthquake. Please accept our apologies for inconvenience it have caused. Thank you."
