I was here for
the Manchester earthquake swarm, late 2002.

 Not so big as the latest, but more of them!   Very eirie, although
 very little damage, and nothing even fell over for me..
 They are more common than we realise, in the UK, but not usually big
 enough to be noticed. 
 Hi
 A 4.7 isn't my idea of a quake. I live in California. I rarely even wake
 up for ones this size. 
 
But, again, you probably don't live in a Victorian-era unreinforced
building.
Peace...  Sridhar
