LOL yeah I didn't really realise it was a earthquake until I saw the news. But while I was trying to sleep I kept hearing noises like someone was walking, was like wtf someone broke into my house. :?

And yeah this was the first earthquake which has happened in about 25 years so most of us have never experienced this before and it hit 5.2 on the ricter scale.

Hahaha, excellent.

I get to rub this in my Geography Teacher's face hahahaha.

He has always wanted to feel an Earth Quake, but has never, and he missed all the big ones here. So he always gets like annoyed when we talk about Earth Quakes XD!

Now that there was one in england, and close to his home town. Sweetums

didnt feel anything down in somerset, i was still up at when it happened and didnt know it had happened until the news this morning. Well, i think further up north in somerset they probably got a few shakes though since it was felt as far as wales.

It wouldn't have 'missed' you, you mustn't have felt it. AFAIK.
