I hope everyone came through alright. Is anyone on the list from
Folkestone?
Not Folkestone but I felt it just West of Ashford. The joints in the
timber framed upper floor made a lot of noise, but nobody downstairs
(which is brick built) noticed anything. I had to turn the TV on to
confirm it was an earthquake. I'd felt one or two when I was in
Cupertino years ago but never expected to feel one in Kent. I think
the same 'quake in California would not even get a mention in the
news, but our buildings are not designed for them here.
