Anyone else feel the earthquakes around 1 this morning?

It hit Liverpool, but it was an aftershock from one that hit Bury apparently.
1) You'll Never Walk Alone
2) pass and move is the Liverpool groove
3) FIRST WILL ALWAYS BE FIRST AND SECOND WILL ALWAYS BE NOTHING.
4) If Torres has scored 60 league goals for Liverpool by the start of the 2011/12 season, I'll say he's better than Owen.

Mentioned it in another thread, we experienced one here in Grimsby, just listening to the radio apparently all over lincolnshire experienced it.

"My son was admitted to casualty, because he woke up with such a start, he banged his head on a shelf"

"I heard it, but I didn't wake my husband, because we'd had a row"

"A crack opened up in a wall in Bourne"

"We're appealing to anyone that videoed the event to get in contact"

"Man's chimney came down into his bedroom"

URGENT - MANCHESTER EARTHQUAKE APPEAL
AT 00.54 ON WED 27th Feb 2008 A MAJOR EARTHQUAKE HIT MEASURING 8.8 ON
THE RICHTER SCALE EPICENTERED ON MANCHESTER.

Victims can be seen wandering aimlessly muttering:"eey are mate, sorted, gotta fookin light form meh spliff? Nice one are kid!",
"Ah need some jellies" "Ah need a fag and a Special Brew". The Earthquake decimated the area, causing approximately £3.50 worth of damage, with the exception of the Salford area, where it caused £500,000 of improvements.
Untold disruption and distress was caused. Many were woken well before their giro arrived. Several priceless collections of mementos from the Balearics and Spanish Costas were damaged. Three areas of historic and scientifically significant litter were disturbed.

The cone fell off the head of the statue of the Duke of Wellington outside the Art Gallery. Thousands are confused and
bewildered, trying to come to terms with the fact that something interesting has happened in Manchester.
One resident, Shanice O'Dwyer, a 17 year old mother-of-three said: "It was such a shock, little Chelsea came running into my bedroom crying. My youngest two, Tyler-Morgan and Kaneisha-Jade slept through it. I was still shaking when I was watching Trisha the next morning."

Apparently though, looting did carry on as normal. The British Red Cross have so far managed to ship 4000 crates of White Lightning to the area to help the stricken masses. Rescue workers are still searching through the rubble and have found large quantities of personal belongings including benefit books and jewellery from Elizabeth Duke at Argos.

HOW YOU CAN HELP
Clothing is most sought after. Items required include:
Sovereign rings
Baseball caps
Shell suits
Tesco two stripe trainers
White socks
Chunky gold chains
Bulletproof vests

Food parcels may be harder to put together but are necessary all the same.
Required foodstuffs include:
Frozen burgers
White Lightning
Pizzas
Crack Cocaine
White Lightning
Golden Wonder crisps (Cheese and Onion and Prawn Cocktail >preferred)
White Lightning
Tripe and Onions
White Lightning
Black, White, Fruit or Red Pudding
White Lightning
Fray Bentos Pies
Pot Noodles
White Lightning
Lard
Oven Chips
Lard
White Lightning
£2 buys chips, scraps and "ginger" - preferably Dunn's or Alpine "Iron Brew"
for a family of four.
£10 can take a family to Blackpool for the day, where children can sniff glue and spike up among the national collection of stinging nettles.
22p buys a biro for filling in a spurious compensation claim.
£1.95 buys an "All Day" bus ticket to enable disaster victims to travel between the Social, the Posty, the Offy, McDonalds, and Wetherspoons, and Heaton Park or Platt Fields Park for the refugees garden party.
Please send your credit card number and a sample signature.

THIS APPEAL IS MADE ON BEHALF OF THE MANCHESTER EARTHQUAKE VICTIMS FUND
BY THE NORTH WEST RED CROSS AND CITY OF LIVERPOOL COUNCIL.

I was listening to radio lincolnshire last night to find out exactly what was what and two women phoned in.

One woman said "When it first happened I thought it was a cat on the roof", in which the guy from the radio replied "must be a big cat !"

Another woman said "I sent my husband downstairs because I thought it was burglars !". Because here in lincolnshire our burglars tend to shake houses  :D
