Who else got woken up by the UK earthquake last night? (round about 00:53am or 01:03am) lasted about 10 seconds measured 5.3 on the Richter Scale (probably about a 5 judging from the news on the Mercalli scale)

Fiancee in Norwich and brother in Nottingham all texted me to tell me they'd felt it - which is when we all twigged what it was.

COOL $\:D/$

I felt it, the funny thing is down in Swindon we shouldnt have felt anything as the news said it stopped at oxford.

I thought it was an aura for a sz but everyone else on the chat i was in mentioned it which made me aware of it!

Where did I put that? · Wed Feb 27, 2008 12:39 pm

I live in Norwich and we felt it bigtime. I was just about to fall asleep when it happened. I wasn't sure what it was until this morning. I didn't immediately suspect an earthquake because it didn't seem to upset the animals or set off car alarms. It was a crazy thing to wake up to!

I felt something. I thought someone was in the house at first, until I checked the news in the morning.
