Earthquake

Post by happytorq »

Survived my first earthquake. Odd experience, but I was quite some way from the epicentre so it really wasn't a big deal. I get more shakes when I don't have my coffee in the morning.

I just had a horrible vision of Steve Evans falling over after a match in the Midlands and starting off a tsunami of Balti pies. yuk what a sight that would be.

Nope - next weekend. I actually got lucky - only power cut was for about 20 minutes. of the 1.2million people my power company service, i was one of the 100,000 or so who got lucky. Internet broke last night though, which is weird - the storm had gone by then.
