<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang

[blasé]Blimey, that was strong for the UK[/blasé]
I've had two here, both times I was in bed. The first one the bed was moving side to side, the house was rumbling - "what the faaaark??!!", the second time I was at my girlfriend's, having a "too bluddy hot to do anything" siesta, The bed started moving up & down but I just thought the dog had jumped on the bed. The epicenter was quite near here tho, it only put a new crack in my garage wall but made a right mess of a mate's house.

Yes even in my drunken sleep it woke me instantly at 00:55 ish and the bed was going up and down for what seemed like 10 seconds or so (hasn't done that for a while :lol: ).

I then spent the rest of the nights 'sleep' with her indoors plus my 9 year old daughter (who was convinced that 'something' was under her bed :? )

It was quite funny watching the TV interviews this morning as the 'victims' recalled their nights terror to the news teams :roll:
