For some bizarre reason I drove a 400 mile round trip last night after work to visit a friend for an hour and was travelling home at 1am when i felt as if the car was going to fall apart!! Turned out the uk was hit by a 5.2 earthquake at 1am last night. No i know this doesnt sound a lot to you american users but to us UK people thats almost unheard of!!!
Still, house and family were ok so no real harm done, the only down side is i am knackered!! LOL
Lol, i just woke up in bed thinking "what the hell's going on, i'm trying to sleep.." Then i heard my bro and mum yelling a each other and realised what it was and went back to sleep!
LOL - when I read the title to this 'I felt the earth move for the first time' I was wondering what on earth you were going to say and if you really wanted to share that with us all here, luckily it wasn't along the lines I was thinking of, that just goes to show that I really do have a filthy mind ha ha LOL LOL
i spent couple summers in japan, and there was 5.4 earthquake in the middle of the night. i had drank some saki the night before, and i was pretty drunk when i went to bed, i woke up around 3-4am, becuase i had to pee, and that's when the earthquake hit tokyo. i was walking down the hall to get to washroom, and i was staggering so much due to the earthquake. and i thought to myself "man, that saki was the bomb" the next morning, i found out that i wasn't that drunk, and i had experienced 5.4 earthquake.
I'm glad you weren't injured and had no damage done to the house. I haven't heard of an earthquake in the UK ever. Normally, I've heard of it in California, Japan, and Indonesia. Yes, I live in an earthquake zone, but we haven't had a big one in years (only small ones).
