Give or take 60 miles

I don't want to feel another. The last one took a year of my life

Scott wants to feel it. No surprises there then...

Did you go :bouncy:

:( :(

I might just stand up and vibrate instead.

:joker: safer :D

No :(

I went omfg wtf is under my bed

That is scary.

We need to take this seriously and authorities actually need to start handing out leathlets/guides on how to keep safe during an earthquake.
This year earthquakes have obviously been going around the world like a mexican wave. I think there was another one somewhere yesterday. I've been fearing since the beginning of the year that eventually something will happen in britain. I'm scurred. They better give us leaflets on safety. All I know is to stand underneath a door.

:joker: has the earthquake stopped? or are you hiding in your bath with your laptop?:joker:

We didn't feel it, thank ****.

Are you serious? :conf:

Earthquakes don't happen in Britain often, so theres no point handing out safety leaflets it'd be a complete waste of money. They only occur in the after stresses in major faultlines in the earths crust send shockwaves down faults which lie within the UK

No, I stayed on my bed, it only lasted a minute or so

Hm, yes. Literally almost every month there has been an earthquake somewhere and it almost seem like it was going around like a mexican wave. Haven't you been following the news?

Bah gutted never felt it 25 miles south of manchester.

I'm scared :( last time we had i thought i was gonna die, don't want another one.

I live in London so meh. http://www.greendaycommunity.org/For.../Dark/hmph.png

Next we'll have a huge tornado! :hugesmile:

Didn't feel it in Blackpool, which is weird since we're just below the lakes xD

i hope we all die

As Smithy said it would be a complete waste of money to go to all that effort when earthquakes are so rare in the UK, and when they do happen they're only minor ones

**** you're scaring me :'(

do you remember the tornado in Torquay? :laugh2:

There are hundreds every day! there are no more now than there ever have been i wouldnt worry about it.

I used to have a cool add on for firefox that was set to make the browser start shaking if there was a major quake measuring over 5.0 on the richter scale but the damn thing used to go off so often it got annoying so i got rid of it!

That's the wrong attitude. We're not invincible. I can't remember I think an earthquake hit japan not too long ago. I was googling to find an article on that but instead found that another earthquake hit japan again :bored:

duuuuuuuuuuuuude don't wanna die in an earthquake:bawling: where the **** is this wave of earthquakes gonna end and how big will it be :bawling:

Earthquakes happen in Japan everyday, it's just the size which causes the amount of notice we give

Apparently you're more likely to run into a tornado here than in America

Sure about that iz u?:bawling:

dont say that.:nono:

sigh there's no hope for y'all [prepares supplies and headgears]

Omg yeah :laugh2:

Lol. Scurred?

K, you go do that then :xyxwave:

K, you go do that then :xyxwave:

:laugh2:

OMFG! That was hilarious!

laugh now. But i'll be safe :(

how bad was torquays earthquake?

yes.
