Anybody else I Rutland/leicestershire feel anything? Almighty rumbling when I was coming upstairs I nearly fell down them and all the cats legged it into my bedroom. Hope its not going to be like the last lot we had.

Weirdest feeling ever!

There's an earthquake restaurant in Lloret De Mar that replicates the experience quite well though (well, there was 18 years ago, anyway), however you do have to suffer the shithole that is Lloret De Mar to go to the restaurant, so I can't really recommend it!

Your cats must have a sixth sense if they shot a beeline to your bedroom during times of rumbling, or maybe they mistook it all for rumpy pumpying??

........nosey cats! Ö~ Ö~

Central

Didn't feel or get this one but have experienced a few in the midlands - one was like a car could have hit the building, but was on the phone to a friend ten miles away who also got it. Felt loads abroad though but the British ones shock me the most. I don't look forward to and frack.ing nearby.

I knew I wasn't going mad but it felt like there had been a gas explosion in the kitchen.

When I put this post up it had literally just happened so there was no information.

Apparently its in some of the daily papers today

I'm OK still a bit shakey I've always been in bed when they've happened before, the cats went nuts a few seconds before it and I thought the stairs where caving in under me.

Somebody at work told me there was a Heavier tremor recorded below the 3.8 Luckily that one did not surface at 13.0 Certainly would have been damage done If that fellow had decided to come up and Join his mate too.
