Seismic Activity - Earthquake Hits Hulme & UK
Did the earth move in Hulme? Either that or one of those heavy lorries came flying pass my flat in the early hours. At 0056hrs the walls of my flat rattled. The same experience I had a couple of years ago when the tsunami hit Asia.
If it’s not Hulme’s fault, then where on Earth was those plate tectonics rubbing each other up the wrong way? If a lorry can boom, boom, shake my room, then this was something bigger. If you get my continental drift? Maybe it was a minor tremor or old mining subsidence. I wonder if Russia was doing any underground nuclear testing?

The Manchester Evening News was quick by posting this on their website Earthquake rocks Manchester. According to their sources it was 4.7 on the Richter scale. Some reporter was up all night after he/she felt the ground beneath move. Come to think of it.. so was I 
A whole bit of shakin’ goin’ on!
Anyways.. who moved my bed?
