The one before this felt like a freight train coming straight through my house and I had a stubby in my hand and it was around 11:30, I’m not talking about the one in the morning a few years ago I’m talking about the one about 10 years ago. It felt like it ri0ped straight through my house like a freight train. Fark you blitz, I was supposed to go to sleep but now I want to here all your experiences. I will need another drink😆

That’s what I think too.

How the fk am I meant to go back to sleep now?

I like me more.
Until these last two, all my life’s earthquakes had been while I was at ground level. The most raised one was when I was in a bunk bed, and that one was so weak I just thought it was my sister getting up from the bottom bunk.
It’s much more interesting when you are elevated. I reckon my unit block will last at least another 63 years; they built things properly back then!
2021 was 5.7.
This was a baby.

6.2 IIRC.
So ~100x more powerful if my memory is correct that Richter scale is logarithmic.

We’re holding that one back, just in case we don’t make the Grand Final.
Just in case anybody wanted to know, Kevin Hart stand up on Netflix is crap . I was praying for an earthquake to dull my mind and it happened.
Yes same here, almost like it was hit by something. Not even enough time to get out of the house, even if I wanted to.
Had the same thought as last time, which was…did a truck just back into a house nearby?
Which I admit is a silly thing to think.

Quite amazing to me…I just read that the Android system detects earthquakes from the collective shaking of Android phones?
I didn’t know they did that…but was notified by my phone tonight…and it was pretty close to the start of, or before, the shaking even reached me.

Was literally taking a crap during the last one and now this one has woken me up. 
Last one a few years ago was certainly bigger and longer. This one shorter and sharper. Mind you I was asleep. Woke up Mrs Grenvold and Grenvold Jnr.
Bring on the 8.0, please.
Thanks Bomberblitz. I was wondering what just happened!

Early reports are it was BDB’s huge cahunas hitting the floor after getting out of the shower
