Default UK earthquake

Typical. I live in the 'shaky isles', my mum worries about us getting caught up in some natural earthquake or volcanic disaster, and then I get a call from her in Lincolnshire saying she can't get back to sleep because of the earthquake!

Hope you guys over there didn't have a too disrupted night, and still have your chimneys(!).

We're in Lancshire too and the amount of peopl ethat have asked me today if I felt the quake is quite a lot.

Needless to say i didn't feel a thing and slept right through it- same for the kids and OH. Guess we will be Ok heading for Welli then.

With 2 kids to look after and living with FIL it should be standard practice.
