Earthquakes in oz are very rare, especially of that magnitude, but while Aussie humour makes fun of NZ much like England does Ireland... NZ is at least 1000 miles away so we don't feel anything that NZ gets, not that we don't fully support them when disaster hits.

When nature hits anywhere we all have to be supportive so I'm waiting to hear the falluout from this latest one. I hear that flights are on hold and all sorts of businesses are evacuated etc etc etc

True indeed!! My brother felt 3 in Wellington months back when they went over to visit his wife's family there. It was only a week or so after Christchurch

But these ones in Wellington were not connected & not that big. People who don't experience them very often tend to have a nervous laughter about it afterwards like in the UK. They make jokes about it afterwards but deep down it's nervousness

Yeah they are on the Ring of Fire which is around the pacific rim. One of the biggest ever quakes happened in Peru & Chile(near by) many years ago
