UK earthquake and British understatement!

Post by caller »

There's been an earthquake in the Kent area with a magnitude of 4.7. It seems like there's been a degree of structual damage.

Then I read this on the BBC's report....

"Paul Smye-Rumsby, who lives in Dover, said: "It was about 08.15 when suddenly the bed shook violently.

" I thought my wife had got cramp or something but then I saw the curtains were moving and the whole house was shaking. It lasted about 1.5 seconds.

"All the power is off and we have got the portable radio on. People are standing outside talking to each other about it."

I bet they're all having a nice cup of tea as well! :P

I wonder what the "or something" was?
