    Default Earth Tremor in Melbourne!

    Did anyone feel the earth tremor about 10 minutes ago?
    Apparently it was right across Melbourne.
    The house shook for about 10 seconds!

    'Twas a doozy.

    Oddly, the ground didn't seem to shake although it seemed our roof was about to take off... at first I thought someone somewhere, had lit a match in the wrong spot!

    My daughter sitting 2 metres away from me felt it but I didn't. Must be some deep meaning in that but I won't go into that as since my op the earth can not move me anymore.
