Earthquake?
 
I'm not kidding, but I was just in the kitchen putting the finishing touches to my car I'm racing tomorrow and the entire house shook violently..... I mean really violently - I could see it moving!
I almost dropped my bum out and thought it was coming down around me - went outside and theres only a medium breeze and no bins over so it wasn't the wind - no damage but everyones looking out of their houses and its just gone 1 am... I am not alone!

James 27-02-2008 01:04 AM
