Felt it in Norwich. It felt like Jon Parkin was jumping up and down at the top of the stairs and then fell down them ;-)

I was woken up by the whole house shaking and a racket from the radiators that continued long after. I ran outside and found half my neighbours had done the same. The dog followed me out, thinking her luck was in for a very early morning walkies. No major damage, although some paint has flaked off the bathrrom ceiling. We live about twenty miles from the epicentre (which was between Grimsby and Market Rasen).

It sounded like someone upstairs falling out of bed I thought exactly the same! At first I thought a wardrobe had fallen over or something. Then the police helicopter was up, so I wondered if there'd been an explosion. Didn't realise it was a quake until I heard it on the news this morning.

I was knocking one off the wrist when the event in question occurred.
I genuinely believed i had reached a higher plain in wanking. Thought i was going to be able to sell books and everything.
Damn you tectonic plates*!!! Damn you to hell!!
* Tectonic plates may or may not be a contributing factor to an earthquake. To be honest i picked History as my Humanities subject and know fuck all about geography. Thank You.

The earth definitely moved for me in Seabridge, I was half asleep, thought I'd got lucky in my dream but no...
Was bloody scary actually, I didn't think earthquake straightaway, it felt more like a lorry had hit the house at first.
