I know it's a bit late but -had not logged in a long while-, thanks for your concerns Darren.
As Tigui said, it was a mess here around Sept 19 laste year. It was a huge earthquake and many ppl was killed. Close ppl were trapped or lost their homes. Even I got some damage in my appartment. But fortunately it were just minor things.
The city pretty much stopped still for a few days and things were very slow and difficult for a few weeks. But a year from it, we are almost ready back as usual.
Thx for your thoughts.
Saludos.
