I`m in South Leicester and was in my lounge just before 1am. I heard a grumble followed by the whole house shaking for a few seconds. The shaking stopped and the grumbling continued for a couple more seconds and then stopped. My daughter woke up crying because her bed was moving and the Mrs woke up due to objects on dressing table clanking. First one I have ever felt and it worried me. I live near a quarry that blasts daily and so we get a daily faint rumble from the blasts. Last nights rumble was worrying! I knew it was gonna be all over the news.
