Surprised noone has brought this up already, it was all over the news in the UK yesterday.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4520148.stm
Apparantly it was heard in Holland and northern France (although I find this difficult to beleive).
My photos from the scene http://www.flickr.com/photos/captain_chickenpants/sets/1562532/
I was visiting a friend about a mile from the blast when it occured. So took a few snaps from his window and outside his house. Not great quality as they are done with my phone.
I now have the dubious distinction of being within 1.5 miles of the two largest explosions in the UK since the 2nd world war
Manchester 1996 and Hemel Hempstead 2005
