YES!

...Although like everyone I know, I slept through the whole thing.

Meanwhile, California isn't impressed.

Pff. Anyone would think we'd given them no sympathy about things going bang.

I didn't survive.
It's a tragedy really.

It ruined my TEA!

I slept through it, staggered up at 6a.m. to make the tea, and found a couple of things off shelves - and a mouse trapped in an empty milk-jug on my microwave.

I almost didn't survive that!

It looks probable that it was shaken off the base of the cupboard above (or it came in as a refugee. I didn't think I had any.)

Re: It ruined my TEA!

That's an amazing and very funny story.

Oop North in Manchester, it woke me up: a pile of board games fell off the bookshelf in my bedroom and woke me and Toby (Jack Russell). I think it was the quake itself that woke me, but the falling boxes that freaked us.
