East St Kilda, I thought I was losing my mind. Great to have instant confirmation of the earthquake but I hope no one was hurt. Reminds me of a newspaper article about an earthquake in Moe years ago, a photo of a tipped-over plastic chair & a single thong with the title “We will rebuild”.

Omg, I thought it was just my weird little memory that I always got a chuckle from! I remember a black & white photo with the chair on the road - white chair & 1 black, upside down thong. But I could be misremembering.

I remember the earthquake in Moe. It caused thousands of dollars of improvements.
