live to love - precautions include staying inside but then everyone legged it out onto the streets yesterday! If there ever was a big one, those inside would be safe and those outside would have all sorts falling on top of them!

Cardiff dragons / bluebirds, playing in blue/red.

Another reason why I hate modern football.

The premiership will be 10% Welsh next season!

The lot I hate (who also wear red) had their relegation from the championship confirmed last night so I've had some great pleasure winding up many friends back home!

Grt. I wanted to hear the same statement about Evolution and Survival. So your statement about God cruelty is meaningless as well. We dont plant a plant after eating one or we dont try to bring one animal after eating one...but GOD has a made a process which takes less and gives you more at least trice. Like as per statistical data each second one human being leave this world and three comes and it is more nowadays. If no one dies just imagine the process...may be u will get a proper evidence for Evolution which you guys dont have still except some fossils.

i actually felt it this time so i knew it was stronger than last week's. a 7.8 magnitude earthquake, now that is a real killer.

we evacuated again but it's too hot to stay outside, unlike last week when the weather was better. now i have a headache.

In the interests of journalism I decided to stay and type while the tremor was hitting instead of running for the door. A chap actually cam running in my office shouting something not in English and with pure terror on his face. Anyway he legged it quick as you like and I guess he was stood at the bottom of our tower along with the rest while I was duty bound to file my QL report.

at least 40 reported dead so far. Chances are there that one more will come as it was 82 km deep..100s of death expected.

Do some people literally come on here to post about it whilst still shaking?! Enough people are making new posts within seconds!

The funniest thing is, everyone leaves their buildings. The safest place to be is inside your building yet everyone goes outside!

Iran struck by magnitude 7.8 earthquake

A magnitude 7.8 earthquake has struck south-east Iran, the US Geological Survey (USGS) reports.

The epicentre of the huge quake was 86km (53 miles) from the city of Khash in Sistan Baluchistan province, near the border with Pakistan.

Tall buildings swayed in the Indian capital Delhi, while tremors were felt across the Gulf and wider Middle East.

At least 37 people were killed and 850 wounded in a 6.3 magnitude quake in south-west Iran on 10 April.

The quake struck south of the country's only nuclear power station in Bushehr, which operators said was undamaged.

There are no reports yet of casualties or damage.

Mohammad Wazir, a correspondent for BBC Persian in Pakistan, says the quake was felt in the cities of Karachi and Quetta.

Yes, but Iran is a bad bad country with nuclear ambitions and mullahs that rule with an iron fist whilst not allowing the will of the masses to be heard.
