I slept like a baby. Was it that strong?

Well my house was swaying from side to side, though i gather it actually took place in the midlands somewhere so i guess it was a lot stronger out there.

That wasn't an earthquake it was just the latest group of illegal immigrants arriving.

It wasnt in London. The epicentre was 15 miles from me, in North Lincolnshire. And I slept right through it.

I was awoken when a glass of water fell off my bedside table and crashed onto the ground.

figured i'd knocked it off in my sleep but it was at 1am and that's not something i've ever done before... so now i blame the EARTHQUAKE. 😲

Today, in London, the first newspaper stand says "Quake strikes London", yet I was in Sheffield when it happened, and even I felt it up there, pfft, typical. 😛

Well I neither heard nor felt a thing in Durham - though the person I was talking to in East Anglia thought it was a bomb - it was that strong there.
