Was pretty crazy tbh. Never felt anything like it before.

Thoughts?

Hahahaha, thought you were lying tbh.

Well with the size of your mother and the amount of bouncing she did last night, i'm not surprised.

Oh dear

Buddh is back, and in fine form too.

Didn't take long did it?

Melbourne needs a bit of a shake up TBH.

I've slept through all the ones we've had here and we've had a couple a shade under 5.

2.9 equals an acceleration of 1 cm/s/s. Hardly perceptible to the degree of being labelled 'crazy'.

Thanks genius.

Pratters · 23-10-2006, 11:30 AM

Any news on what bearing this will have on the Ashes?

I'd call it crazy because it pretty much never happens over here, apart from isolated incidents, as we're in the middle of a continental plate away from any active fault lines (well there's a volcanic arc in Indonesia but it's still in no major proximity)

Pasag, you should try living here

It's still a damn sight less than what happened when a lot of people jumped up and down during a Madness gig at Finsbury Park (4.5). Not impressive...
