As apparantly, they could be felt all around the UK, the epicentre or starting point being Dudley in the Midlands.

I didn't feel anything, but our company MD was awoken by it and quite a few people i know felt it.

 

Crazy ! I thought this only happened in other countries.

 

 

 

 

I know loads of people that felt it & only just a few miles up the road too - me - i felt nothing but then i was seriously deprived of sleep!

Woke me up, after I was just getting some kip after a hard weekend, really pissed me off

hey grant

you might be surprised to learn how often earthquakes happen all over the world every day. i live in san francisco which is US earthquake central. there are earthquakes every day here but most are so small they can not be felt. this is pretty interesting reading:

Theres an earthquake in TidyTraxGrants bed everytime he has a curry on a Friday night!

 

So his girlfriend told me - poor girl !

Is this ur "subtle" way of askin all ur conquests "did the earth move for u?"

Alasdair,

 

I read that an earthquake strikes the planet somewhere once every 11 secs or something similar.

I was aware that the majority are so small that they're unnoticed, i just didn't think even the minor ones hit the UK.

 

Live & Learn !

She told you then ?

Thats the last time i go down The Eastern Tandoori in Greenwich.

 

Yeah we felt the Quake here in Cov. Proper shook the house, our road is cracked and a few drive walls are looking worse for wear!

 

According to BBC.co.uk we get a naughty Quake around 5 on the whatsit scale every 10 years, but there was that one a coupla years ago too... very moving stuff but that one the other night lasted a good while... ooooooh!

 

hehehe

There was an earthquake in Leicester about 7 months ago, wasn't nearly as strong as the one thats just happened but could still feel it. Felt like a huge lorry passing the house. The scariest earthquake I've felt was in Greece when I was on holiday. Wasn't the fact the earth shook, more the fact every1 was looking out for the tidal wave it could cause.

That would be scary as fook!
