Yes - sorry about that... My Minitrix Warship fell off the track again.

Size matters - especially if you don't have a lot of space - and N gauge is the answer!

Yep.. it was centered not far from here (in Pontardawe a bit NE of Swansea). We we're all wondering wtf but no reports of damage - and it was pretty short.

I thought it was just tthat the Ospreys scrum had collapsed 8)

Felt a minor tremor through the sofa when doing the Daily Fail sudoku but just dismissed it as a botty burp.

Hi ,
Working on fifth floor in Birmingham today and felt it and an aftershock shortly after. First was a  rumble that shook the desks the second was longer and softer but still audible and rattled the building.

No worse than the others I have had in North Wales. One of those was centered 12 miles away.

all part of life`s merry tale.

And you're about 80 years overdue for a really big one as far as I understand?

That won't do you much good, half of 'em are active or dormant volcanoes.

@newportnobby  I don't see how NGF can be considered a friendly forum if this is allowed to stand.
