She is northwest of the epicentres and reasonably distant, though I have no doubt she felt the shocks and will be busy helping with the scared livestock on the farm.
My exhusband's family live in Ferrara which is in the midst of it.
I have tried to read the Ferrara local news but my italian is too rusty to understand much.
My husband was up milking last night as one of our milkers broke his arm last week and he's been in substituting him (they milk at half past two at night!) He didn't feel a thing as our new barn is built to anti-seismic standards but said alll the animals went berserk -they feel it more than us.

Hope none of your extended family suffered any damage or injuries Margaret.
