Did the Earth move for you too?

Dave · Did the Earth move for you too?

So, how many other foro users had that strange 'mmm, so this is what an earthquake feels like' moment about 3/4 of an hour ago, then?

Tuten K

thankgod it was an earthquake i really didnt know what to think

Duncan!

Dave, was it your first time?

zeds

Am in London and this is the first I'm hearing of it.

Did anybody in London experience anything?

Mezz

I didn't, Zeds.

First I heard about it was when I came in to work this morning, although I did manage to sleep through a massive gas explosion at the BP refinery in Grangemouth around 1985 which happened less than a mile from my house.

When I woke up my bed was at a rather strange angle and some stuff had fallen of tables and shelves, but I put it down to me most likely having a rather vivid dream about the Thundercats or MASK.

I was seven years old, you see?

I note that we're now hearing our first stories of tragedy from last night's quake: Lincolnshire was not seriously damaged.

Caused several pounds worth of improvements in Gainsborough, I gather...

zico

Slept through it.

Earthquakes are quite common around the Potteries, seems like the whole nation is overreacting. I just thought it was John Prescott falling out of bed.

My flatmates thought our incredibly shoddily built student house was about to collapse, i thought someone was just shaking my bed and was confused as to why!

Something to talk about though.

My desk started wobbling about 1am. I wish I could say it was a 'shake', but it was much more pathetic than that.

It's a flatpack job from Ikea so I assumed it was finally about to collapse. I put it together the wrong way round.

I'm in Bristol, so it was obviously felt pretty much everywhere. I tried coming on the foro just after the quake to share my thoughts, but it seemed to be down. I was scared this was a victim of the quake..

Bedroom started rattling all over the shop and woke me up.

Wouldn't mind but I only watched Cloverfield 4 hours previous.

I was listening to music on my PC when I heard this strange rumble in the background. Before I knew it the whole room was shaking, before it all died down rather quickly with nothing knocked out of place.
