Anybody seen this on the news? I've only just come in and caught the end of it, but it seems pretty mad! And I think Neal is only about 20 miles or so from there and it said the blast was felt about 40 miles away. Hope he and anyone else nearby is okay. Sorry if someone on here has already mentioned this and this is a re-post, but I didn't notice it anywhere

Drove past it today on my way to Watford. Biggest explosion since World War II apparently. The smoke is immense around there. Was chatting to some guy in Watford who said the vibrations woke him up!!!

Getting to work tomorrow (and the rest of the week etc.) will be interesting as I normally go right past the place usually.

All the fucktards are panic buying all the petrol as usual Rolling Eyes
