Earthquake?

A distinct rumbling was heard across the peninsular, and some people felt a shaking at 8.15pm this evening.
News has come in that the sheep at Sanna took fright and ran in all directions.



Update: Earthquake epicentre was Acharacle. More info from British geological Survey at this link

  3. One of a series recently in your part of the world, I believe. I don't think the volcano's going to erupt again soon, though. Pity..all that lovely roast pork ...
