Shaken......not stirred!
So.....I'm in bed at 1:00am with the cat at my feet and Roger to my side, when suddenly - the earth moves! I wanted to say something smug like "was it as good for you....?" but instead I stated the obvious: "Earthquake!" Yup, 5.2 on the scale - which I called. After living in So. California you get a feel for these things. Interestingly enough Jingle didn't stir. What can you expect from an 18 year old cat? Instead she waited to do her nightly routine of keeping us awake at 5:00am. Now THAT'S an earthquake when you're sound asleep. Back to the quake, it's the talk of the town this morning. Everyone is telling their experiences. Remember, this is unusual for England, the last one being in 2002. And wouldn't you know, the earthquake equipment at UEA isn't working so it probably is safe to say it wasn't recorded. Anyway, I'll remember the date as it's my sister-in-law's birthday today (Happy Birthday Sally!). And with that, time to get on and start the day.
Until the next quake (real or imagined....),
