Have felt it about 9:34am in Leighton Buzzard - house shook and windows rattled but not as strong as on 8th Sep

On a par with the evening one last week rather than the bigger 3+ one a fortnight ago I’d say.

Conservatory rattled and the similar ‘explosion’ sound as 8th September event but not as loud.

Yes. A big thud. Felt like the one on 8 Sept, but smaller. Didn't feel the one on 13 Sept.
Why is this happening?

Can you give us any information as to why this is happening? Seems strange as we are not on a tectonic plate?

Hi James, thanks for letting us know. We're just looking into it now. In the meantime, if you could fill out our quake report that would be great. Thanks!

Don't worry it's just Boris pulling out the loose change from his pockets. He's down to his last £5 million apparently.

What is happening, three in two weeks. Appreciate it not your fault. As a laymen is this normal, why now?

Am I correct in thinking we have sandstone/mudstone bedrock in the Leighton Buzzard area?
