Never mind the San Andreas fault line

We just had an earthquake here.

I woke Chris up (I have been shopping and was about to go to bed). It also woke Kita in Banbury 10 miles away, and she called me a couple of minutes ago to see if we'd felt it too.

I almost ignored it. We used to get goods trains going past on the main line about 400 yards away. the biggest of them would be up to 40 coal wagons long, and would make the house shake like that too. However there is no railway line that close to Kita's place so it MUST have been a quake. Weird.

More details on the BBC website.
