I'm fine Jay, thanks -didn't feel a thing as I was fast asleep!

It was felt quite strongly though by my eldest who'd come in late and was still awake -said his bed was shaking and the windows rattling -scared him a bit -he was very near the last one a while back in Parma.

We have felt the aftershocks this morning though just the windows rattling a bit and lights swinging...

Looks like there's been some serious damage to various churches, castles and old towers in the area around Modena and Ferrara -two lovely old places.

The death toll is now at 6 - 4 night -shift workers who were killed and two women had heart attacks because of the shock.
