WINDHOEK shook, rattled and rolled late on Tuesday night, as the Earth sighed, then shuddered, sending those awake scurrying to Twitter to record their last living moments, write their last will and testaments, and try out for ‘Free Your Mind! ‘Fifty Shades of Trembling’ was the order of the day (OK, night), as an apparent mini Earth tremor in the capital accounted for a moving moment.
