They seem to be a regular occurrence in Icmeler now, they're getting more frequent; global warming for you...

We experienced one 2 or 3 years ago, my hubby was having a tattoo at the time. I went very lightheaded. Then last year we had another when I was in the shower again I felt strange and lightheaded, hubby never felt any of them or any small ones I have felt in between. But last year we had a really bad one, we were sat having a drink and everything shook really bad, even the locals looked worried, I was ready to run into the middle of the street. Definitely a weird experience to feel one.

I can remember the first time we stayed in Icmeler and through reading the posts on here knew that the area was prone to earthquakes. We were all in bed and I felt the shaking and could hear the pots on the side rattling. I turned over and went back to sleep. It was only when we were sitting round the pool the next day that I found out that it wasn't a dream it was a real earthquake. It hasn't put me off. We had them years ago in Manchester, one after the other. :)
