Anyone else feel it last night? Measured 5.2 rictar scale. I only woke up because some pussy in the year bellow next door was screaming . Although really not that scary, though some plaster did fall off ceiling but only because its rubbish and old! Went straight back to sleep..

2 of my friends rang me last night and they only live 5 minuets away but I didn't feel a thing. From what the said it wasn't just a little bump in the night.

Think the epicentre was Lincoln or something, we are in Rutland and it was quite a shake, didn't last very long though, it was enough to make me move about in my ed a bit and for my pretty much empty tube of toothpaste to fall over! (and that plaster but that is extremely sh*tty!)

Heh GRF ... That is the same one that did the rounds after the fuel storage in Hemel blew up a few years back.

I woke up to that one! ( And as it was a windless day, we looked back on the club anemometer, and saw there was a 7knt spike at about the same time the place blew up!

Thats one hell of a blast wave!
