Just wondering if anybody else felt the earthquake that struck the East Midlands about 4:20pm this afternoon.
Here in South Lincolnshire it lasted about 10 seconds and shook my entire house. At one point the ground felt as though it dropped down.
It was certainly a very wierd experience.
So did anybody else feel it?

It's possible to get an Earthquake anywhere in the world. Even here in Britain. Most of the UK's earthquakes are minor as we are not near any 'fault' lines. On average we get one reasonable quake every 2 years. Although the last 'biggy' here was near Warwick in September last year.
I would have thought that the 'UK' bit of my user name ukconfederate would have shown that I'm from the UK. Never mind, don't worry about it.
I just like the confederate flag and so I called myself the ukconfederate. Simple as that.

I'm guessing it's in the midlands, to the east, roughly, you know, kind of to the right of the west midlands!!!

Oddy enough, I did feel a small tremour... but thought someone had just jumped off the bed in the next room!
Still, it was nothing compared to the one earlier this year... being in Coventry, that was far more violent than this one... which was bearly noticable over here.
