View Full Version : Just felt odd thing, very much like a mild Earth tremor!!!
Sitting here watching Sean of the Dead and I started to wobble. I live in a top floor (3rd floor) flat on a main road. Sometimes I might just feel a vibration as an artic goes by but this literally wobbled me and I looked up to see the liquid in my tall, gadget shop thermometer thing really going for it! It lasted about ten seconds. No artics going past. I live opposite an RAF base but no sound coming from there neither. Not too far from a train line but it's an underground line and it's 1 am. Any ideas? It was very strange. Thought I was losing it. Oh yeah I'm in Ruislip. I was also woken by the Bunsfield oil depot explosion. Missus said it was an explosion but I didn't believe her!

Dunno that's odd isn't it?! I'm on the outskirts of LONDON though!

The Buncefield depot going up woke me with the noise. I live about 25 miles from there.

I felt it down here in Swindon. But to be fair I live in a new build house so the hole thing shakes when kids walk past.
Mrs Skint felt the earth move - I was fast asleep :confused: :scratch:

Anyone got any damage, out of interest?
Poop. Lots of damage. That means it's going to be ridiculously busy at work (saga insurance) :(

Would have to be a hell of an earthquake to wake me up after working 24 hours in 2 days ;) Didn't feel a thing!
