Bernie I am the same as you!  it was one of my deciding factors about 6 years ago ( or whenever the big June one was years back ) not to move out permanently as I was there to experience that one, it made me realise I am not cut out to live in a country that is prone to earthquakes!
Call me naïve but when we bought our apartment 12 years ago ( doesn’t seem possible it’s 12 years this May) I knew about the earthquakes as in having to have the dask but I really never expected to experience one...

They scare me ****less, and I feel the after shocks for ages after. One time a few years back Scunner stayed on messenger talking to me must after it happened must have been after 2am in Turkey he was in UK. Really appreciated that.Yet a few people round  and about never felt a thing. Martin slept through them all.
12_years..I know time flies..I'm still deciding where's best to live. There or here.
