The Earth Shook

On Friday night while we were enjoying an evening relaxing and watching ‘The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy’ the table suddenly started to shake. At first I thought it was a mobile phone vibrating, but it progressed and the whole house was shaking. It only lasted a short time and by the time we realise that it was an earthquake/tremor and remembered what we should do, it had stopped. It was not very violent – I’ve no idea what it would have measured on the Richter Scale, but there was no damage done and we carried on watching the rest of the film without further incident. I did later find out that a friend in South East Uganda also had an earthquake/tremor on the same night.
