what the FUCK was that??

holy crap - i am at mum's - we were all just woken by a massive BOOM, then the windows shook violently for ages, and we could feel the floor shaking. We're all awake, lights are coming round all over, people are outside trying to find out what it was.

So weird.

Mum has put the kettle on, for a cup of tea.

edit: bbc 24 just said they've had reports of a massive explosion in hemel. It must havebeen enourmous to have us feel the shakes from here. (St Albans)

edit 2:
the first one shook the windows, the whole house, violently. as we were up and talking about it, we heard/felt two more much smaller ones.

If the shocks we felt were anything to go buy, i really REALLY hope there were no people near it. It must have been huge.

i'll go outside in a bit, see if i can see anything from here and take some pics.
