As the the bang, yes it did wake me up, almost threw me out of bed (I am only about 3 miles away), my sister who is another mile down the road, further from the blast had her lost hatch blown open....must of caused a fair bit of pressure in the loft to do that, the smoke was quite bad where I live last night but its blowing the other way today.
. Some mates where evacuated from their homes and had their windows blown in...not all bad as we spent the day in the pub!! (we could see the flames from the pub window!).
