    Was only a small one at 3.4 but apparantly was quite noticeable. The new hospitals built on shock absorbers so I think that's why I didnt feel it but my girlfriend who works in newtown said it felt like there was a wave!

    Ive been here over a year now and still havent actually felt one :(

    There has been a couple in Auckland since I came here. I've only ever felt one, was about 3.4 too I think.

    Nope, people in the same office as me felt it but I must have been walking around or something because didn't feela thing. I've been in NZ exactly a year today and have never felt one even though there has been a fair few.

    I think it's better that way!

    I felt that one! Was talking to someone at the time who didn't bat an eyelid. I was about to jump under the table shouting "It's the big one!"

    Was only 3.4 alright but very close to town.

    Funny- there's been two in two weeks now. I can't remember the last one before that that I felt.
