The explosion happened at 6AM, and it woke people up in Oxfordshire - and was heard as far away as the Netherlands. Serious stuff, but apparently it seems to be an accident.

I think I might have heard it, because I woke up really ****ing early for no plausible reason and couldn't get back to sleep.

Scary.

...looks pretty south east to me:X

That's because it is south-east, I made a typo because I'm stupid.




Posted by Lord of Spam

You've got a long way to go before you get anywhere near are stupid as me.

Is there any idea what caused it at this point? The article said it was being looked t as an accident, but have they any clue as to what caused it?

That's not a real image. No way is Britain that green.

Ugh, that's terrible. Hope everything turns out all right.

I personally thought it was pretty badass.

Hope a bunch of birds die because of it.

Maybe not in YOUR ugly-ass county.

Aww, did Speedy get woken up by the loud bang? Is he all cranky now? Snuzzywuzzybiggums, den.




Posted by Speedfreak

I woke up at 3.

So late you missed the joke.

It was on the front page of every paper this morning.

Crazy K needs to learn how to control himself, I mean, Jesus.

I'd hate to think what nasty particles are floating around in the atomosphere now.

There are always nasty particles floating around in the atmosphere.

Son of a *****

That whole off-topic bit was the best part of this thread.

We are, indeed, doomed.

Quoting Porcupine: Aw, I want to derep Ant for his post here but I can't. :(


Aww, why would anyone want to do that? Is it because I want a bunch of birds to die? Sometimes I just can't understand people!

I didn't hear it, and I think I was on the M5 or something at the time, returning to London. I didn't actually see the cloud either, which was strange.
