Jageshwar of the temples? Trying to clarify since dunno if there is another Jageshwar.

That is close to Almora, Binsar and not that far from Bageshwar too.

If so, not in the Earthquake area. In fact, pretty far from it.

Ps did a quick search. Doesnt seem to be any other Jageshwar.

Uttarkashi is in Garhwal Region whereas Bageshwar and Jageshwar are in Kumaon Region of Uttarakhand - more than 200 kms east of the earthquack epic centre. No need to worry.

Yep - he mentioned Almora. That's wonderful then. Between earthquakes and landslides, it all started to sound a little alarming. Thank you - I feel better now. (Removes fingernails from teeth.)

ks_bluechip was reporting from Shrinagar (last para), which is a lot closer than Jageshwar, so u have nothing to worry.

Right, Capt - the only other Jageshwar is the Vriddh one, which is also nearby anyway, as I'm sure u know.

Thanks again guys. It was good of you to reply and allay my fears.

Wonderfully, I received an email from my man about an hour ago, and he is fine and well. So I'm a happy girl again.

Cheers
