Quake!!

What's the country coming too! First snow a foot thick then an earthwake strong enough to make all the snow slide off the house roof and on to the car!
Just got into bed when the house shook, the wardrobes doors opened and a large bang as snow cascaded off the roof. Might stay in bed today to be safe.

The Mayans got it wrong, world ends this year, not 2012

My house also did a bit of shaking! Was a strange feeling. I thought it was a huge hgv at first

We never felt anything- the biggest excitement last night was the 2 young cats caught their first bird, it was an unfortunate pigeon, whose feathers are now scattered all over the snowy garden.
It is reminiscent of that Sweeney episode where the guy shoots himself witha sawn off shotgun through a pillow.
Any gamblers want to guess who will be cleaning that lot up?

Them Aftershock have had me under the bed once too often, learnt my lesson now.

We felt it in Derbyshire between 2300 and midnight, it felt like a big lorry going past. You want to leave the alcopops alone and don't drink in bed.

I'm only a few miles from cum-bria and I felt nowt. There again, I was in bed and I'm in my fifties - so nothing new there

Snow AND an earthquake (that I didn't notice despite being awake)
You must have NO bread left anywhere!

I felt nowt, knew nothing about till it was on about it on the radio this morning. Could not noticing it have anything to do with my having had a few drinks at a wedding?!

Never felt a thing.......but then I might have been driving home at the time.
