NEWS FLASH

Well, we have just fallen off our chairs here.... Remember (how could you forget) what happened down in Victoria a few weeks ago. Well Craig was on the phone to Linda (his sister) who was in the middle of the Churchill fire, and they have just had an EARTHQUAKE. Thats right, an earthquake. My Sister Chris lives in Melbourne and just rang to tell us. OMG how much more can they take down there..have no idea where the epicentre was or how much damage, lets just hope it wasn't a big one, just a lot of shaking about.

All is good, just a lot of shaking, rattling and rolling..but can you imagine how those that were evacuated from fire threats felt when they started shaking. Its probably spooking all of us more than them. Linda's girls 13 and 7 didn't really notice, no doubt they were shaking, rattling and rolling to something on the tele!
