Yaah it woke me, didn`t think it was that bad, just 10 seconds of heavy vibrations. Wife got a bit worried, the cat wondered why her sleep had been disturbed, and went back to sleep.

The government will no doubt blame it on global warming and use it as an excuse to increase fuel duty.
That tw*t Livingstone will say it's too many big cars in London, and put the congestion charge up to £100!

Woke me and the Mrs here in Scunny, 0057 by my clock.

The TV and the Seismic people say this morning that it was a 5.2, and centred on Wragby, which is between Lincoln and Market Rasen, also that the tremor went off 15km deep

Scunny is about 25 km from the epicentre, so we shook pretty violently for about 10 seconds. I thought it was the wind getting up a bit

THEN the fekkin' neighbours were all out in the street shouting about it and keeping everyone up.

I was at my laptop looking at Inovit alloys, when everything started creaking, thought it was a ghost, then I stood up, and the house swayed distinctly from left to right for around 3 seconds.

Isleworth, Middlesex

Either you have very slow reactions, or you've changed your clocks too soon

Felt in Warrington. Not as big as 1984 Wrexham.
