Yep, same here. Just woke us and our neighbours up in Nottingham. Not the nicest thing to be woken up by
BBC news reporting it all over England

I just read that other people felt it elsewhere.
I though that is almost impossible to get earthquakes in Britain

thats N Yorks here and i just spoke to someone in Milton Keynes who felt it!! We get loads of earth tremors in this country - just most are too small
to feel. The news is gonna be full of this one shortly as possibly one of the biggest in a while!!
