Yes, quite a good one two....lasted a good 10 seconds for the main tremor with a smaller one to start with.

We are only about 20 miles from the epicentre.

Its the third one we have had in 5 years round here.....doom, doom, DOOM!

[Danny]

i didnt feel the dudley one, this is my first...

    ...of many more???

[Elite Pete]

I didn't feel this one but the one in the 80s was a good one.

[Bo Bo]

Thought i was going mad, just felt it in Telford, fairly strong too

Thought?  

[Tab]

i was still up and felt it, made me jump up pretty sharpish.

bloody nearly shat myself

[Bacon Butty Man]

.......and at 1am Obviously not an early start at work this morning then!

Heard nothing myself, too busy pushing out Z's.

[GastronomicKleptomaniac]

Even I felt it, and I'm practically in Denmark... I first thought it was that "nodding-off-nodding-off-nodding-WHOAWHAT" feeling...

[Andy B]

Camatosed at time of the morning/night - never felt a thing  

[ffcgary1]

Some silly bint on the telly was asked about the shake this morning, she was in grantham, she said she was scared silly by the shake and that global warming was to blame  [?] She then said that she had'nt actually felt it as she was asleep at the time. "Cor bet she was scared!!!!" Me, i never felt a thing as i can sleep for England, just as i never heard a thing when we had the Hurricane and a dirty great tree went through the roof of the warehouse next to my flat.

[albitz]

i told the missus that i am so good that i can make the earth move for her even when i am in bed and she is downstairs,.......i got that look,you know the one ...........

[waspy]

well there might be an aftershock either today or tomorrow, tis said to have been a 5.2, and happened directly east of where i am, 15km underground

and there was me thinkin it was noisy neighbours!

I thought it was those bloody starlings nesting in my attic, i woke up & said shut up you noisey little buggers & went back zzzzz
Harry at work asked me if i heard owt & i didn't know until he said  

[Andy B]

....!!!!" Me, i never felt a thing as i can sleep for England,

and me.  

just as i never heard a thing when we had the Hurricane and a dirty great tree went through the roof of the warehouse next to my flat.

Iwas at sea in the middle of that on a Grey Funnel Line!

[amigov6]

I slept through the 87 hurricane which sucked the loft hatch away & left a hole in the roof of my then rented flat on south coast.
   Lastnight awoke 00:30 ish bunged up with a cold. Got a glass of water, plumped up the pillows, was just dozing off when i heard a turbine like noise that got louder & louder, the whole house really shook, A book & a deodorant fell off one of the bedside cabinets followed by a creaking noise :-/. Went back to sleep. Woke up @ 6am ish, flicked telly on & they were all on about it. The epicentre was in Gainsborough which is pretty much Notts./Lincs. border so close enough for me!

[Marks DTM Calib]

Epicentre was in th middle of a farmers field in Market Raison.....but they had somebody in Gainsborough on TV.

It amazes me all these chimneys falling down and then you see the state of the houses they are on and the lack of mortar and they would have probably dropped in the first high wind anyway!
