I have to say this is the first real earthquake that I've felt in Hamilton in 45 years other than the sudden jolt or rumble of tea cups. I feel quite unequipped to deal with an earthquake in terms of where to go (Civil Defence) how to help and what to take with me. So I'm going to make it my business to find out and become more equipped for a disaster. Starting with my Community centre.
