The warning alarm

I got two ... one in Welsh, one in English ...

Was there a warning that that was going to happen?

Yes, London. I had no clue what was going on

I bet if you were in a supermarket you’d think the fire alarm was going off with everyone’s phone having the alert.

Yes. Left my phone in my bag downstairs at (SD
House with 3 floors, can’t think what you call them the now), but I blinking heard it all the way upstairs.
A good thing in my opinion.

Townhouse 🤦‍♀️

We did. South coast.

I didn't. South Coast.

It's just England and Wales.

None here. I’m in Scotland.

Mine was in Welsh with no translation!

Well, it didn't go off on my phone but as I was in the garden, I heard my neighbour's alarm.

We did. South coast.

Just had a phone call from 11yr old GS, he had the alerts and wanted to know if he should put his X box in his grab bag as his mum (DD) had said no…

Yes

No - I’m on South Downs.

Yes I did.

Nothing yet on my phone, neither mobile nor terrestrial. Maybe they think there isn't enough sunshine up here to dry out the vegetation and make it vulnerable. Tell that to them in the Cairngorms, or even on Arthur's Seat in the middle of Edinburgh.

Answering my own question - News reports say the alarms arrived on phones in England and Wales. (Except for the reports saying the alarms went out "nationwide". Do they know something about Scottish Independence that the SNP haven't heard yet? Also, there is someone asking on the net "Can you have wildfires in Scotland?" No, dear, they have passed a law banning them. They don't dare cross the border illegally.)

Yes (see other thread)

Was that over the whole of the Uk?

Yes me too

Yes

Yes.
