    So, did the earth just move for you?

    An earthquake has been felt by people in several parts of the East Midlands.

    Heh, nope, too far south working from home. Would have been marginally interesting to be in the office today, I guess.

      Probably due to fracking.

        Did it cause any improvements?

        I was staying up there during the big quake of '08. That woke me up. For a second or two.

            I did feel and hear the tremor (now confirmed at MAG 2.9, 5 miles northof my location)

            I awake at 05:15 so I was perfectly placed to hear it - I was in the kitchen at the time making coffee.

              Does it count as weather?

                  No. My fault entirely. I was "letting the dobermans out" and cracked the porcelain.

                  Could have been worse, if I'd had the prawn vindaloo and reshmi kebab it could have been a 6 or 7.
                  Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.
