Funny you should say that but I looked on the BargaNews forum and the editor had posted a rather active print out of a seismic reading from the Garfagnana which was 2.7.
Nothing larger to come I hope. :eeeek:

Here in southern Tuscany around 8 something this morning for a nanosecond the electricity wobbled in a way I have never experienced it wobble before. I was reading e mail and momentarily, very, very briefly the screen froze and the desk light shuddered. We're well aware of the eratic Italian electricity supply but this was completely different. Related surely? V

Having been through a few of the tremors here, then just the light shuddering isn't too bad. Sat here last year and watched the room wall shake like a jelly as the express train through the ground passed through, so not so bad for you!!!

Is 'dressing table' code for something I am too innocent to comprehend :smile:?

By complete coincidence I happened to be talking this afternoon to the man who was living in our house in September 1997 when the big quake occurred in Umbria (or was it le Marche?). We're on the Umbrian border but he did the most wonderful impression of the earth moving as it did that day, said he was scared out of his wits. Was anyone else on this board near the epicentre at the time? He told me a funny story about how there had been a slightly smaller one on a Sunday afternoon almost two years earlier. He'd been drinking at lunchtime, sat down to watch an F1 race on TV, Michael Schoemacker (spelling?) shot off the grid, suddenly the earthed moved and Massimo too thought he was circuit racing! Very reassuring to hear house has stood for 500 years and even during those two major quakes suffered no damage. V

Yes Charles....but why not ask a woman you know intimately what it means!

We were in Spoleto last year and were amazed at the damage still awaiting repair from 1997, anyone know how progress is going? Hope it hasn't been set back with latest quake!
Do you mean there was an earthquake or are you just boasting?:laughs:
