Earthquake update

Luckily there were no aftershocks felt from the main quake, which I gather is unusual.Divers off Shabla beach reported that the seabed was 'bubbling' !.

Earthquakes are relatively common here, but are usually small in nature.However in 1977 there was a quake of 7.2 in magnitude, centred near Bucharest and many people lost their lives.It was Ceaucescu's excuse to demolish whole swaves of what was then a very beautiful city.
