Picture the scene... sat at my desk, colleague facing me, discussing 'meja' when all of a sudden we both realise that the room was shaking...
At first I started to think that I was finally going to flip out after all those years of GRP's and segmentation studies.
It seems not. It transpires it was more to do with the Pacific Ring of Fire. Now, I always thought that was what you got the day after Fish Head Curry but no. It is in fact the seismic fault line off Indonesia. Turns out it was having another bad day. A 6.3 on the richter scale bad day.
Buildings here in Singapore swayed lazily and many were evacuated. Lots of bankers and media types having to flee the comfort of their air conditioned offices and sweat profusely in the midday sun. If only the people at the epicentre in Padang, Sumatra had to contend with such minor inconveniences...
