We were woken at 1.10am by a lot of creaking, and doors rattling. The quake went on for about five minutes. Just when we'd settled back down and dropped off again there was another of equal size, though it only lasted about a minute. Emily thankfully wasn't disturbed by either. We found out later that there was a series of magnitude 6+ earthquakes about 100 miles north east, off the coast.
