There was some kind of explosion around 6am. I thought it was our boiler going insane, or something really loud falling over in the house. Richard was out walking, and he came back shaken. We're watching BBC News 24 to try to find out what it was. Reports say it might be a fuel depot at Hemel Hempstead by junction 8 of the M1 - that's more than 40 miles away! People have heard it as far south as Ascot & Guildford.

We're fine, but Richard is all shaken up.

This proves how sound proof my house is. I'm not that far from you in terms of the distance we're talking about but I didn't hear the exsplotion in my house. I do know when it happened I was in the bath but my head was above water because the bathroom door opened for no reason. Maybe the soundproofing took out the audiable frequencys but left the shock wave to pass through and open my door. Puzzled me somwhat at the time untill I heard about the exsplotion.
