Earthquake in England
Market Rasen in the Lincolnshire countryside had a tremor measuring 5.2 on the Richter scale about 4 years ago. We live roughly 50 miles from the epicentre and were woken by a loud clattering which was the ripple effect of our roof tiles shuffling and resettling. (Not a single tile was broken and our kids slept through it all)
My brother, who lives a further 15 miles from the epicentre was still awake and web surfing. He immediately looked for any news on BBC,CNN, Sky websites but information there was none.
After about 20 minutes, the first news came through on the cause of all the noise.
Yes that's right the exclusive was brought to you first by....... Facebook.

Nah, google images result for "house of cards"
If you're curious, I'm sure Rory'll be long to post another hilarious picture of me from a previous b3ta bash any second now...
