Re: Did the Earth move for you?

I woke up briefly to the noise of the headboard banging the wall.
Thought - 'a while since I heard that'

Noticed my tomcat on the bed
Thought - 'Oh he's found yet another way to get me up'

Re: Did the Earth move for you?

It woke me up first i thought the baby was having a fit cos her crib was shaking and then noticed the wardrobe doors were shaking like we had a ghost!! it was very strange i turned on the news to see if it said owt on there but i fell asleep again!

I woke up at 6.30 to feed katie and it was on Gmtv, i shouted to mick "I knew it was an earthquake" he jumped up wondering what i was on about! well that made sure he was up for work. hehe.

Re: Did the Earth move for you?

It woke me up, I thought the fitted wardrobes were about to come away from the wall.
I remember the one in the 70's but this was much more severe and seemed to go on for much longer.

Re: Did the Earth move for you?

My hubby asked me to keep still, when I said I'm not moving he said we just had a b****y earth quake then, turned over and went back to sleep. I never felt a thing.....

Re: Did the Earth move for you?

Again, like everybody else .. woke me up, but must have been at the tail end .. convinced myself that I had been dreaming and that it was not some entity shaking my bed, particularly after me lights going out the other night.
Didn't stop me keeping my light on for a while though.

Thanks Garinda .. like Emamum phew, and thank you, thank you. x

Woke me up, thought some one was trying to kick the door down, we have just started locking the outside doors to our block as we've had a lot of probs with little scrots causing trouble, thought they were taking it out on the doors.
