This is a map showing where Hemel is in relation to London.
I live in Hemel, in an area called Gadebridge.
The next link will take you to a map that shows where I am in relation to the oil depot.
Gadebridge can be seen in the centre square on the left hand side of the map &
the Buncefield Oil Depot is, or should I say,
was in the centre square on the right hand side....

I don't have a camera, typically, but I did mange to get one picture with my webcam from my living room window.
It isn't that great
, & it certainly doesn't do justice to how near and how dark the smoke stack was,
but I thought I'd show you it anyway
