My first proper Earthquake!
Last night at 3.07am was woken to everything moving, bedroom cupboard door rattling and general WTF moment!
This is my first really quake, the previous one I had felt while I was offshore in Qatar, but thought that was just the crane driver being a bit rough with a load landing.
Last nights was different, the whole place was shaking and lying it bed it felt really weird last a good 20+ seconds I would have guessed.
Turns out it was a Magnitude 6.6, located around 48Km WNW of Polis, off the west coast of Cyprus.
At least no damage here and everyone fine. Eldest daughter thought it was 'so cool', think that was her first experience of one as well.
