Call me paranoid, maladjusted or just plain crazy but as I was just sat watching the telly, the greatest bloody shaking just happened - earthquake me thinks!!!

Anyone else in the Midlands feel that, particularly in the Rugby area?

I first thought that my study floor was about to crash into the front room below. Thought I'd put too much weight on recently. It even woke my wife up and she can sleep through most things. This is the second tremor I've felt while living here since 2001. This one just now was the biggest and lasted at least 10 seconds I'd say.
