Did the earth just move?

[Arch]

Weirdest thing, my flat just shook. Well, juddered. Twice. Only for a second, but very definite. Never happened like it before.

Sometimes, when another tenant slams a door, you can sort of feel it, but this was different.

Have I just had a little earthquake?

When I used to be a College, I, and others, would occasionally have a sideways feeling as though the building had just moved. I wouldn't worry about it.

After the one the other week, a suggestion was to check Twitter.
I just did and there's a few from yorkshire reckoning there was an earthquake.

Nothing here though.

You were a college? Blimey, how big are you?

I'm not worried. Just interested. That 'big' quake we had 3 years back, woke me, and I could feel the building swaying very definitely - didn't know what the heck it was, assumed a minor earthquake, but it wasn't confirmed until I heard the radio news next morning. Being on my own, I couldn't turn to someone and ask "Did you feel that?", so I wondered if it was my brain going haywire.

Sounds like a large lorry may have driven past?

This was only a slight movement, but it was noticeable. Happened more than once too, and no, alcobooze wasn't involved at the time.

When we had a small one a couple of years ago it was on a night that the dog was elsewhere and I thought it was a shame as animals are supposed to be sensitive to them coming and I'd have liked to have seen how she reacted.

Yes I used to treat my body like a Temple, but I have since lost some weight.

Did you have beans on toast for tea by any chance?

Woo! Cool! It was an earthquake! Reported on Twitter, across North Yorkshire.


I'll be waiting for it to come up on the BGS website....

The "Breaking News" strap on Sky News is reporting a "small earthquake" in Northern England

And a solar eclipse tomorrow. The end is nigh, I tell 'ee!

I felt it! I was on the phone to my sister and suddenly it felt like someone had dropped a bag of spuds on the floor behind me! I told her that I'd check to see if a tremor was reported. It was at 21:04.
