Did the earth move for you?

Cor blimey! I was in a well and truly deep sleep last night when crash, bang, wallop and rumble went on all around me, with everything shaking. I was scared stiff! Honestly I thought my heart would pop out of my chest! I know now that it was an earthquake.... yes an earthquake here in Sunny Scunthorpe! I even ran to my parents room to ask if they heard or felt anything but it seems they slept through it! Typical! Apparently we were only up the road from the epicentre in Gainsborough! It measured 5.8 on the Richter scale! Scary stuff if you ask me!

Now here's a picture of my PMC heart earring creations, not bad I don't think, and they took blumming ages let me tell you. Just the waiting for the clay to dry seems to take forever. For those of you who are unsure of what PMC is, its a form of clay which once moulded and fired with a blow torch turns to pure silver. Clever eh?
