Ailz Slept Through It

[poliphilo]

A sort of rustling, shuffling, falling down noise. Like a house of cards collapsing. It wasn't repeated so I decided it was probably something the rabbits had done and I could check it out in the morning. 

I went back to sleep.

And now I know it must have been the earthquake. Biggest in a quarter century. 5.2 on the Richter scale.

I guess it depends on where you live. I've heard from friends further south who actually felt their homes shake.

It could have been the shock that woke me up. According to the newspaper parts of Manchester were quite badly shaken.
