The European earthquake monitoring service said the quake measured 6.4 magnitude. The quake was also felt in the neighbouring Izmir and Antalya. Two aftershocks, measuring magnitude 4.8 and 4.5, were also recorded following the earthquake.

Bernie I am the same as you!  it was one of my deciding factors about 6 years ago ( or whenever the big June one was years back ) not to move out permanently as I was there to experience that one, it made me realise I am not cut out to live in a country that is prone to earthquakes!
Call me naïve but when we bought our apartment 12 years ago ( doesn’t seem possible it’s 12 years this May) I knew about the earthquakes as in having to have the dask but I really never expected to experience one...

They scare me ****less, and I feel the after shocks for ages after. One time a few years back Scunner stayed on messenger talking to me must after it happened must have been after 2am in Turkey he was in UK. Really appreciated that.Yet a few people round  and about never felt a thing. Martin slept through them all.
12_years..I know time flies..I'm still deciding where's best to live. There or here.
