I forget exactly when it was , but in the 80's there was a small quake out in the Irish sea , around 9-10 in the morning !!
I had had a very heavy session on the beer, the previous night, and I was running a bucket of hot water for the dairy wash cycle.
The bloody tap and copper pipe to it, started to pulse and vibrate under my touch , and as th4e good lady was outside on the concrete yard , I was about to shout ' The taps throbbing ,whats up with it??' but I thought no , no , she gonna think I have the hangover of all hangovers !!
Twas only later in the day I twigged it was about the time of this tremor
But the old boys who cut peat on the Whixall Moss 3000 acres of peat bog , nearly sharted themselves because apparently the peat shook like putting a toy soldier on a jelly and shaking it
Frightened one or 2 rigid !!
