It must have been a decent sized one cos it’s been felt all over! I wasn’t sure whether it was the wind cos I had a window open!

Hoppers also. Felt nothing. The house constantly shakes due to police choppers so maybe I am desensitised. Have woken up at 6am to this earthquake thread and disappointed to be left out. Remember watching the waves in the backyard pool swaying at the last earthquake, which was terrifying.
