We had one here in Cornwall a few years ago which made things fall off the shelves and pictures came off the walls. No damage though. When I heard of the Kent tremor my immediate reaction was that one of the seams in the Kent coalfields had caved in causing tremors. Worth a thought. |

From: Roger the Skiffler Well, Herself and I came back from a week in Kent a week ago but disclaim all responsiblity- I didn't do any singing so reports that the earthquake was caused by the stampeding sheep trying to get to the tunnel are untrue!
