I didn't feel a thing
« on: February 27, 2008, 06:36:02 AM »
Apparently people 10 miles away from me were awoken in their dozens.

How long before I get the recycled jokey "earthquake hits Dudley/Liverpool/Essex" e-mail?

Family all claim to have "felt" it happen. I was sound asleep having taken 7.5mg of Zopiclone and heard/felt nothing until Jim Naughty told me about it in sepulcher tones on the 7 O'Clock news when I confess I thought "worra load of bollox" and turned over for an extra 30 mins under the duvet.

Better to check any string instruments. All guitars, ukeleles and Mrs S's Mandolin in this house are out of tune this morning. Happens every time there is a tremor. Dunno why (and frankly don't want to know).
