Yeah that was mad.
Happened about 1 am so everyones asleep, I live in flat in an attic space in an old barn conversion thing, I thort the whole place was comin down lol.
10 seconds later its like, oh, earthquake, nevermind.
I live bout 8 miles from the epicentre btw, didnt seem all that bad, more damage in other places further away funnily
A lot of fuss about nothing on the news today really
All my tea cups are in one piece thankfully

Live in SW London. Was awake at 1 a.m. and didn't feel a thing. Too far away i guess.

lol at this. The news was fucking swamped with this story this morning but they had nothing of interest to say because it's still so pathetic versus "real" earthquakes.
One reporter actually said "We've heard about one man injured in Yorkshire......"

Didn't feel it in Kent. Wondered if all the northerners had gone senile again.

When I first heard about it I thought I hadn't heard it, despite being awake at the time.
Then I remembered I thought the guy upstairs was having a strangely deep sounding wank and realised it was the earthquake. It was very faint though and I'm in Manchester, not suprised you guys in London missed it.
Obviously it's a really boring/ inane thing for other parts of the world though...
