Gas explosion in Swanse

"People living in the street said they heard a loud bang". You don't say! ::)
I came to realise that every time we recognise something human in creatures, we are also recognising something creaturely in ourselves. That is central to the rejection of human supremacism as the pernicious doctrine it is.

Two blocks from where one of my sisters lives. Glad that she's in hospital a bit further away.

There seems to have been a number of gas explosions recently - Jersey, Evesham, Goole, Barnsley, Nottingham.

Is this usual every winter, or is it a sign of something seriously wrong?

Seems to have been a concern in recent years
