1.10am The room just literally shook. Very gently, but very definitely. At first, with my quaint little history of petit mal and red wine, I thought it was just me, but a few other people say they felt something too.
Was that an Earthquake in England just now?
1.23am The BBC is now reporting this
That was def a quake…I’ve felt a few before and I am positive!

Yes it was, I live in Manchester btw… so it was a big quake for the UK.

The news ticker on the BBC is now reporting an earthquake in the West Midlands, but no story yet. It must have been significant to feel it so certainly down here in London.

Someone up there was trying to get your attention…
I see it worked.

A simple magpie would have sufficed.
Or a text message.

Six comments in, and nobody has tried the “Did the earth move for you, darling?” line.
I am here to put that right.
“Did the earth move for you, darling?”

Ptcha. We always get left out of things in Scotland. I could do with having my earth rocked.

You felt it! You felt it and blogged about it before it even hit the airwaves! You are on the ball! I was fast asleep.
