I WHINGE about suffering long, sleepless nights and then when something of national importance happens I miss it.
I z-z-z-ed my way through Monday's early morning earthquake which was the talk of the streets.
Shoppers reported being scared as pictures were shaken from the walls by the biggest rumble to hit Britain for 10 years.
Police reported hundreds of local calls as the tremor, the equivalent of a small nuclear warhead, struck.
I don't know what they were expected to do, but thankfully the earth didn't move for me.
