Bit wierd. I'm in York. I thought it was the wind! I was totally puzzled until I turned the radio on, apparently it's all over the country.

Don't suppose it's actually damaged much, mind - was a bit of a rude way of keeping me from falling asleep at the time though

Yes I did, in south Leics. And I'm glad others did too.
I was stood up in my room setting my alarm clock. It shook the whole house for about 5 seconds. Not strong enough to knock stuff over but it was certainly very noticeable.
scared my cat to death, now she's hiding under my Mum's bedside table.

Anyway, that's me done with the drama for the night - I'm off to bed again. If there's another quake, either Cloverfield's attacking (remember, they're gonna wanna know how it went down, man) or God hates me and doesn't want me to sleep. No need to panic either way!

Earth tremor felt across England People from across large parts of England have reported an earth tremor.
The BBC has received calls from people in Staffordshire, Warwickshire, Leicestershire, Manchester, Berkshire and the West Midlands about a "quake".
The tremor could be felt in central Birmingham at about 0100 GMT but it is unclear if it has caused any damage.
The West Midlands was hit by an earthquake in 2002 in the Dudley area that reached 5.0 on the Richter scale and caused damage to homes.

could be not to far from me.

4.7 on Richter Scale which is reasonably strong for this country.
Epicentre of Lincolnshire - near Hull apparently.

thats quite strong for round here Tiffie!
30 miles south of Hull, should put it in the middle of rural Lincolnshire somewhere.

If its near Hull then there'll be thousands of pounds worth of improvements.

Hah, so I can see. ;D I've learned to tune out quakes below 5.0+, since I'm used to getting loads of "small" quakes on a regular basis, as I used to live on the San Andreas fault.
