All Shook Up!!

It was a fiersome night in Island Bay last night. The wind was howling, the rain was pouring, it was pretty darn cold. Luckily we had a very nice spaghetti and a James Bond film (The Living Daylights if you want to know) to warm us up. The storm was not the end of the affair though - at 5.35 am Wellington time, we were shaken awake quite aggressively by an earthquake (factor 5 on the Richter Scale). A very strange experience, and a little unnerving I have to say. I have since been assured, however, that the more smallish earthquakes we have, the less likely a massive one will be, so I'm much happier now. That's all really, so adios amigos. Hope you slept well. xx

    How scary, but I'll bet quite exciting, for you guys! Anyway, real reason I cam on to post today is to give Sally some news...

    Stevie Nicks played Australia and NZ earlier this year and apparently she had such a great time that she has said she plans to go back to NZ to play this Christmas/New Year if she can arrange it.

    Thought you might find that interesting? If you go I'll be soooo jealous, as if I wasn't already! I'll keep you posted from websites etc if dates are announced....
