Dear God!

Never known one as strong as that!

Yep it was in Carnforth too! Has the new stadium just landed?

yup central Morecambe as well

Same here in Morecambe about 11.22.

University as well the whole building shook heavily

Even felt as far as kendal

Felt it in the York - thank God we have a good supply of Brandy

Seems like locals are still posting so the nuclear power stations are still in one piece.

i felt it at the uni, i work above the barclays, i thought someone had blown up their safe!

i wonder where it came on the richter scale? i think it's logarithmic so might be very disappointing..

Mark - I'll ask Mary if the earth moved for her!!!!!

3.7 I think, located somewhere near Chapel Island, just out from Ulverston.

I thought the woman next door had fallen over!
I went round to see if she was ok.

If looks could kill!?

I felt a bit at work in Preston but very slight.

Tomorrow's stories today

At about 11.20am yesterday people from the town - and as far as Barrow, Blackpool, Lancaster and Carnforth - experienced what at first felt like an explosion.

'That's another fine mess you've got us into'..........

No doubt Laurel and Hardy are having a laugh!

What have we done to the BBC? Do we actually exist to them?

From the news article online and the radio...
'It centred on Ulverston in Cumbria and was felt around Barrow, Kendal, Windermere, Fleetwood and the North Lancaster area.'....

The fact that it was in Morecambe Bay... and we don't even get a mention...

I felt it at college

Didn't feel a thing in Snozzlebury's
