A few months ago the whole of England experienced an earthquake  - be it only a minor one which didnt cause any more damage than a couple of chimney pots falling off here and there. For most of us it was a fascinating experience of the furniture in our rooms shaking for a couple of seconds.

But i have to say that the tornado you guys over the pond in midwest  suffered yesterday freaked me out. I was on the phone to Sophia trying to analyse which would be the best place for her to be in her new appartment, telling her to close the blinds and curtains of her windows and then steer clear of them . And then i heard it , the storm approaching and that noise. Jeez i could hear something hitting the building, and the sound of  that tornado, bit like a jet flying low . I kept telling Sophia to stay in that closet and to keep calm, half expecting to hear the sound of breaking glass. I know for sure that i was just as relieved as she was once it all died down.

The news bulletins say that a 2 year old boy died during the storms. Im hoping that you guys are all ok, and didnt suffer any damage to your buildings/ cars etc.
