On the front of the Earthquakes: are you prepared? booklet distributed by Fethiye Belediye last year it says

24 April 1957 21:17(pm) - 6.2

25 April 1957 04:28(am) - 7.1

Today was a 6 and could well have been a fore-shock. I know many Turkish people are sleeping outside tonight and I will probably be joining them.

AN EARTHQUAKE off the Turkish coast has put dozens of people in hospital, including some who jumped from buildings.

Woke up this morning to see all our Ukrainian neighbours asleep on their sunbeds in the garden and our neighbours opposite slept in a tent, they were too scared to sleep indoors. I expect they werent alone.....

After posting here that i felt one i looked online and saw it was 4.0 then gave up sleeping here alone and went to the hotel my bf works at armed with a bag of food, clothes, laptop etc haha. At 5am ish there was a loud rumble and slight shaking and that was 4.4 apparently. My bf didnt even wake up but me on the other hand, i didnt close my eyes once! Considering going back to england for a week ! terrified. A few facebook friends slept on the beach.

There is always a funny side to an event like this. As posted elsewhere, Tinkerman had told me about this alcohol free Effes. Chris has us both locked into a healthy routine at the moment ( don't worry, it will pass !) and so I was having a glass of this beer when the earthquake struck. Sitting here this morning it just made me smile about having the ground move and the room shake while drinking non alcoholic beer. On balance ( no pun intended) I much prefer the simulated room spin effect.

I  do hope that yesterdays quake was the big one , and we dont get anything bigger.Still very nervous about that happening.Today i am going to put an emergency supply pack together and store it somewhere outside  in a safe place, just in case.
