Wednesday, February 27, 2008

Just woken up by the earth moving. It rumbled on for several seconds. No one else felt a thing...

Clare Dudman said...: Thanks for your responses! Amazingly wide spread. I felt one before in 2002, here in Chester. That one had a distinct side ways movement - more of a slide. This one was more of a multi-directional shake.; Wed Feb 27, 02:31:00 am

Clare Dudman said...: So am I, Steph! It's really unsettling. It gives you a bit of an idea of what a really big one must be like. No one else woke up at all. I can't get over that...; Wed Feb 27, 02:49:00 am
