Folkestone quake

A tremor hit Folkestone again today. It was the second one in just under two years. The first was at 08:18 on 28th April 2007 and measured 4.3 on the richter scale. This one was at 14:35 on 3rd March 2009 and measured at 2.8 on the richter scale. This second is classed as a tremor and the country suffers tremors all the time, although not normally this powerful.  It did knock a couple of fragments out of my bedroom ceiling, but they are tiny ones.

If we have a second one, I have no idea how the house will hold up to it.

    Blue tack and sticky tape? :-)

  2. Or sticky back plastic and a washing up bottle. LOL
