We were outside this afternoon and were mystified by 'rumbling, booming' noises in the distance to the east of here, estimated to be probably around the Falmouth area.
To all intents and purposes it sounded very similar to an onshore, heavy Naval bombardment!!
We are used to 'blasting' at the local Herniss Quarries, but this sounded nothing like it and it continued on and off for more than half an hour and it seemed to vary in direction from ENE to SE.
It was not a Thursday, so most probably nothing to do with the 'Thursday War' in the English Channel (of course I may be wrong though!!)
Any info would be much appreciated!! Many thanks --Paul
