Only the second one I've felt in 18 months - woke me up.
Thought one of the dogs had snuck upstairs and was trying to jump on the bed at first.

Mr WB was blissfully unaware, having imbibed several bottles of Efes with friends earlier.
Proof that beer is good for you....?!  ;D

That reminded me of the first biggie that happened while I was in Turkey.

Half past eight on a Sunday morning, stuff flying everywhere in the apartment, the whole site outside with the usual everyone shouting/talking/screaming at once, dogs barking like crazy, kids wailing...  never felt/heard a thing courtesy of several large yerli gins at Car Cem not that many hours previously.

It was pretty localised to Karagozler, no-one in town had even felt a slight tremor.

Sitting on the terrace that evening, the first aftershock sent me sliding along the terrace for 2m.  Being on the third floor, I decided that I'd had enough fresh air and went to the pub instead.  Again, nothing felt in town.
