    I was on a phone call to my son in Caroline Springs (Melbourne) - his dog went berserk, and he immediately recognised what it was. I spent a good part of the day on the phone checking on relatives, especially my elderly sister in law who lives alone about halfway between the epicentre and Wangaratta.

    I was parked up in the daily driver in Scoresby, never felt a thing.
    Heard about it on the news later.

    I was on my Kayak on Balcome Estuary, Mt Martha on the Mornington Penninsula and I didn't realise what it was at the time, I just felt a few waves that sort of like being side on to sea waves.

    I was 'cuddling' my missus whilst she was making coffee in the kitchen .. didn't realised that the earth moved for her so literally.
    Weird feeling for a first timer(me).

    But my partner is Japanese and for her it's normal.
    My house is on stumps so rocking motion was noticeable.

    All these discos are giving me a heart attack!

    An experienced Series driver wouldn't notice it, until buildings started falling over.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    I wish the latest Truckie did.

    I doubt all the black bream in there would have noticed.
