Nope. Engine noise generally rattles the windows more. In this case it was more focused on the floor. I probably dreamed it, although very small earthquakes are apparently quite commmon in London. My only slight worry is that I may have actually been shaking rather than the floor.

From Wikipedia:

"Delirium tremens can sometimes be associated with severe, uncontrollable tremors of the extremities and secondary symptoms such as anxiety, panic attacks and paranoia. Confusion is often noticeable to onlookers as individuals will have trouble constructing simple sentences or making basic logical calculations. In many cases, people who rarely speak out of turn will have an increased tendency for gaffes even though they are sober."


Sounds like my biography. Not much of a drinker though. Having given it some more thought, I am inclined to blame our plumbing. Sorry about the unnecessary posting. My solipsistic experience of East Dulwich is probably not of general interest.

OMG a few weeks ago I woke in the middle of the night to what felt like an earthquake. I got up the next morning thinking that it would be reported on the news, but to my surprise there was nothing. My bf told me that I was going mad and i believed him lol.

I am soo happy that other people are just as mad as me and feel the imaginary earthquakes!

Bear in mind that if an out of service bus runs along Wood Vale nearish the Horniman after midnight (which I believe they're not supposed to do), it can seem to make the place shudder slightly.


...although perhaps the monster hunts buses so that's when it's most active...

    • @ ed pete "there still has to be the demand". I don't know but wondering if developers have been able to make a case based on the increase in demand from 2023-2024. The research I looked at said demand had risen by 500 in that period,  but was still below an all time high in 2022.   There will be others who know much more about this area who can give the rationale in favour; perhaps this latest govt. research is incorrect or only gives part of the story. My point is if, as seems likely, this development does little to solve the current housing crisis at local level for the non student population, I hope that the council is very, very sure that this level of student accommodation is warranted at this location. I have not managed to look at the plans in detail but how sustainable are the plans for the build; how will it be heated, what about impact on water and waste services?    
    • There is also I believe some evidence that students are choosing to go to universities, where they do, closer to home so as to avoid additional costs by living at home. Personally I think this is a mistake - being an undergraduate is a first chance for independence - but if economics and costs are making this so the demand for accommodation such as this will again be weakened.
    • A good plumber - Ade Okoosi. He came to do some plumbing for a new kitchen at a flat in Camberwell, sealed up a gas pipe and put in some taps and a thermostatic shower. On another occasion he rapidly removed a radiator. Would definitely use again.  Ade 07961981944
    • Interesting the projected demand.  One imagines that you don't undertake this kind of investment without the business case to back it up.  There's one going up near a friends office in the City that is for 782 students.  OK, these are much closer to HE establishments but there still has to be the demand. https://dominusrealestate.co.uk/projects/65crutchedfriars/
