Earthquake last night in Birmingham..Scary stuff..
My Granddaughter lives in Lincolnshire and a few years back they had an earth tremor.. She said it was the strangest feeling ..
Has anyone experienced this.. ?
Don't ask me.. I know nuffink..

Doncaster had one several years ago, but i was in Goa at the time. it was in the middle of the night and everyone got out of bed in fear, so it must have been a quite severe tremor...

The earth moved for us coincidentally at a very appropriate time maybe 20 years ago - almost certainly this one https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2002/sep/24/davidward No damage but all the doors shook.

I come over all dizzy if I get up too quick..  Does that count..!!

Here is that West Brum quake recorded on my seismometers.
Top trace is vertical movement and bottom is horizontal east/west.
Magnitude was 2.8. That's quite large for a UK quake.

i blame fracking.....
Not a lot going on round Brum. Or anywhere here now that I know of. Cuadrilla were told to shut down and seal all their sites (I think Putin promised Boris some gas cheap or something).
