Not yet - we R in the Midlands, near Brum..         -ish.

I remember the one a few years ago, sounded like an express train going underneath the house.  DH leapt out of bed, 'what the f was that?', earthquake said I - he wandered the house for ages after.

It was a loud rumble then a shudder, it's the 3rd time I've felt an earthquake but I think it was the biggest jolt  ::)

Yes all in the UK, it must be frightening to be caught up in a big tremor where there is damage to buildings, we really are fortunate to live on such a placid island.
