Red face Earthquake!

Apparently there was one in the southern half of Portugal yesterday lunchtime, 5.4 on the Richter scale.


I was eating a tuna sandwich and missed it completely

I don't seem to be too responsive to natural disasters - I also slept through the 1987 hurricane.

Is 5.4 not very much?

Well, the Dudley Earthquake was 5.0 which woke me up and scared the crap out of me (running out of house thinking the roof was falling in)

However, I did sleep through a 6 whilst in San Fanscisco and didn't feel a thing

The only time I've experienced one was in North Wales of all places. I don't know what it measured on the Richter scale but I could definitely feel the earth move which put the wind up me never having been in that situation before.


Tuna sandwich was about 2 metres long if memory serves me correct.
