Yes felt it in Rotherham, wondered what the fook was happening, looked out the window just after as all the houses down the road lit up wondering what was going on.

Guy at work on nights I have just taken off was dead chuffed as he was able to put "EARTHQUAKE" on our shift report LOL!

I heard that it reached as far as Cardiff. It certainly woke me up. Wondered what the hell it was for a minute.

I felt it too in Melton Mowbray. I had time to think this is an earthquake, tell the wife don't worry it is just an earthquake and then get out of bed and go to the lads room before it stopped.

At one point I though that it was getting worse, which is why I headed for the lads room, and then it settled down. All very exciting.

Im not sure if I felt it or not, I woke up this morning and heard on the radio about it and couldn't work out if I dreamed about being in an earthquake last night (big coincidence), or if I actually felt one?? Which ever way I was no where near awake enough to know what it felt like! *laughing*

Yep, which is why we don't get major earthquakes. I think the nearest edge would be in the Atlantic somewhere.
My geography is abit rusty.

So surely where ever the plates meet nearest, which i think is Iceland wouldnt it occur worse there? I though the occur when plates bang into one another?

Only quoting the news. Might have only been a tremor by the time it reached there though.

I must have slept right through it.

The girlfriend has been ill and told me this morning that she thought her room was shaking last night and put it down to a symptom!

She was relieved that she wasn't going mad when she found out it was an actual earthquake.
