Yes, we had an earth tremor last night. I was sitting at my computer and John was a few feet away in the next room (door open). I heard a sound, like someone had just jumped off the bed upstairs. John felt a movement under the floor.

Heard on the local radio this morning that the tremor measured 3.6 on the richter scale. The epicenter was in Bromyard, about 10 or 12 miles away.

Definitely not in Wales. I live in Worcester.

I missed the one we had up here a while back. I was asleep...the rest of the household felt it though. Apparently we have hundreds every year but most are too small to notice. 3.6 is enough to get your attention though by the sound of it Sue.

I haven't felt the earth move for years and when it did last year I slept through it.
