In Glasgow, uk?

just woke up after having felt like something had tried to lift up my bed.

Quite nauseating!

I live above the subway, so some kind of tunnel collapse was my first suspicion.

Nothing in the list for the last 3 days and it was updated at 05:40 today.

There’s a sub list for induced seismicity (big explosion, demolishing a power station chimney etc) which is empty.

Comedy duo moving a piano perhaps?

Middle ear infection? Sometimes can cause those kind of weird vertigo/nausea sensations out of nowhere, even while you're asleep.

Or do you live close to a Hellmouth?

My guess is dream, I've had some weird feelings wake me up occasionally.

Small earthquakes sound and feel like your neighbours slamming the front door, but they reverberate a few times.

I mistook an actual earthquake  for the macerator running before. The building was shaking/ rumbling a bit and it went on for a while, but I was too sleepy to realise what was happening.  Not that a macercator can shake a building, but I was in a sleepy stupor.

So any plant/equipment in your building?

My partner used to live under a paint shop. It was great as shop empty all the good times.

But 9am every morning when the paint mixer fired up was a bit alarming the first *ahem* sleepover.

Depends on what it's having to deal with, I suppose. What's the faecal equivalent of sticking too many towels in the washing machine?

I live on the corner of hyndland st, so I’m used to pretty heavy traffic. All kind of heavy banging.

But this was plain bizarre. Like night terrors. A revolting sensation.

I struggled out of the nightmare (it felt like a seismic ripple, moving east to west).

Strangely, I had to push the mattress a couple of inches, back to its original position.

i guess I’ll have to chalk it up to subsidence.

On the day of the ‘incident’, I did ask the staff at kelvinhall underground if there were any reports of subsidence.

Emphatically “No”.

Im sure we’ll get to the bottom of this…

that said, nothing else in the flat was affected.

I remember the Market Rasen earthquake, and I was thirty miles away. Absolutely no doubt that was an earthquake, I knew immediately.

So I would suggest that if you have doubts it probably wasn't
