2pints-mate 0 Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Not something we are used to here in the UK!! Quote: Homes were evacuated, power lines were cut and emergency services were inundated with calls yesterday after parts of Kent were shaken by an unusual British occurrence - an earthquake. The tremor, which measured 4.3 on the Richter scale, struck just after 8.15am. The quake had its epicentre 7.5 miles off the coast at Dover, said British Geological Survey seismologist Roger Musson. http://observer.guardian.co.uk/uk_news/story/0,,2068090,00.html Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Best that shocked them big time! I'm sure it won't freak them out too much if there are not aftershocks. Link to post Share on other sites
