My first proper Earthquake!

 Last night at 3.07am was woken to everything moving, bedroom cupboard door rattling and general WTF moment! This is my first really quake, the previous one I had felt while I was offshore in Qatar, but thought that was just the crane driver being a bit rough with a load landing. Last nights was different, the whole place was shaking and lying it bed it felt really weird last a good 20+ seconds I would have guessed. Turns out it was a Magnitude 6.6, located around 48Km WNW of Polis, off the west coast of Cyprus. At least no damage here and everyone fine. Eldest daughter thought it was 'so cool', think that was her first experience of one as well. Full details can be found at: https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us7000gaqu/executive

The Arrival........Day #9, #10, #11

Day 9/10 - Saturday/Sunday

More waiting and more pottering about in the villa.

Day 11 - Monday

Headed into town to collect my passport from the car garage. Was going to need the passport tomorrow for the electricity changeover. 

However, on the way into town, got a phone call from the Shippers.

The container is being delivered tomorrow! Yah!

Needless to say had to cancel the plans to meet the villa agent to do the electricity changeover.

Carried on into town, picked up my passport and then carried on to the bank to collect my new bank card.
