Hemel Hempstead has blown up

[eldar]

Some might say, about time too....

In all seriousness: I used to drive past Buncefield Depot every day when I drove to Dixons. Their main HQ is right next door to the depot - http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?lat=51.7601&lon=-0.4221&scale=25000&icon=x - the main building is just to the south-west of the "I" of "Industrial Estate". Given houses in the area have been damaged... there could be some damage there. Upshot is, we've got a large project starting there over the next month, and this may knock it back a while. (Their servers are all in Stevenage, mind.)

Living just downwind of the place, I can safely say "I love the smell of Hemel Hempsted in the morning. That gasoline smell, it smells like... victory."
