Earthquake SW England & S Wales

[stet]

Mrs stet & I were sitting on the settee: there was a thud and the whole house seemed to move about three inches. At first we thought it was caused by the next-door neighbours who have been been making a racket all day moving house. Then we thought the washing machine had thrown a rod (it's been making some alarming noises for some time) and it was only thirty minutes later we learned about the earthquake.
