Woke me up, and I'm a pretty sound sleeper. Sarah slept straight through it though!

I remember the last significant one. I was at work and all the warehouse shelving rattled  :shock: A bit spooky when I was on my own!

Didn't get as far as this bit of Wales, then again it may have done and I might not have noticed - was listening to something with a fair bit of bass at the time!

Slept right through, but I did have a dream about an earthquake happening in the Uk, Only to wake up and realise it was on the radio and my alarm was about to go off to get up.  :doh:

Actually, natural Climate Change (but not that which is happening over the last 150 years that everyone agrees or disagrees with), IS the main cause of earthquakes in Northern Europe, due to Post-Glacial Rebound.

It takes many tens of thousands of years for the crust to return to the shape it had before an ice age.

Here's Wikipedia, but rely more on the reference links off that site.
