"P.s. The "scossa di terremoto" last night here in Ancona was baaaad!"
Is that a joke?

Only too true.

[url]http://www.corriere.it/Primo_Piano/Cronache/2006/04_Aprile/10/scossa.shtml[/url] gives some detail. 4.2 on the Richter scale, so was not trivial!

It was a small flutter down here in Beautiful Francavilla, one of the dogs glanced up, the rest slept through it.

:) Robert I hope our houses are still there !!!!!!!!!! please have a look when you go:eek: better now i suppose before the work has started:) regards Francesca:)

Yes, there was an earthquake.
It didn't last too long, but was really "bad" here in Porto Recanati.
No damages anyway.

We didn't feel anything here in the North of Le Marche.
What time was this at ?

Shortly after 9pm on Tuesday. Didn't get much coverage in the press - no buildings fell down, nobody hurt, bit of a non story really!!
