Anyone else just hear that?
I'm in Kangaroo Pt at work and trying to work out what that noise was. Was a series of loud bangs 10-15 or so. To loud for fireworks as you could feel the pressure change in the air as well as the reverb off of the cities buildings. Sounded like it was coming from the south? Maybe tunnel blasting, I even though a supersonic jet going over

Nuh! It's the funeral director blasting a deep, deep hole to bury Anna Bligh in.

I had one of those in 1992.
Can't remember her name, though. |

New speed camera strategy perhaps, a bang to go with the flash to really scare the bejeebers out of people?
