Wow, I am almost glad that I have a stinking cold and my streaming nose and pounding head is keeping me awake.

Just before 1am, we had an earthquake, and I've never experienced one before. It was so freaky. I was lying in bed, doing a bit of writing because I haven't been able to sleep, and the bed jerked strongly from side to side several times.

The weirdest thing is that virtually nothing else in the room seemed to move, just the main lampshade was left swinging afterwards.

I was beginning to think that I'd imagined it, but they've just reported it on the main News.

Based just outside Grimsby, and 4.7.
I felt two distinct tremors. Willow got quite peeved, and my lovebir fell off her perch and is now shouting at me about it. I wish to state here and now It Wasn't My fault. (Fault, Get it? :O) )

*grins*

I bet it was.

It's hit London (central and south), Manchester, Bradford, Leicester and Swindon, according to reports on my f-list (and my own experience).

I'd be very surprised if it hasn't been felt further east than Cambridge. The tremor was incredibly strong here.
