With all the news on TV lately about the hurricanes that America is experiencing, the typhoons in China, flooding in Switzerland and recent mud slides in South America, we shouldn't forget that the UK has its share of devastating natural disasters too.

Attached is a photo illustrating the damage caused to my home from the earthquake that occurred last night.

It really makes you cherish what you have, and reminds us not to take things for granted.

Do take care of yourself and be safe.

Felt it in swindon. I thought it was someone downstairs banging around until my wall started to wobble! Was really bizzare but cool!

Didn't feel anything in Swindon. Although someone else in my house did. How strange

What time did it happen around? In the late evening last night I thought I heard a chopper over head, could that be it? Mates at school were saying they felt it this morning.

Nick1881 · 27 Feb 2008 at 15:48

I slept through it, even though it woke most people up round here.

I can sleep through anything, gutted I missed it.

I was awake, but I didn't notice anything here (South London)...

This confuses me.

That lad is lucky.

Sinny · 27 Feb 2008 at 17:32

Slept through it

No-One · 27 Feb 2008 at 17:52

I'm about 50 odd miles from the epicenter. It woke everyone in the house up and set off someones burglar alarm. I could feel my bed still shaking slightly for at least 20 seconds.

ShakenNstirred · 27 Feb 2008 at 17:58
