A small country town shaken....

OKay not as big a story as two guys stuck down a hole, or a reporter keeling over, but this one was a little closer to home and I thought it should deserve a mention.

Best wishes to the families and community involved in this accident.

I found it ironic that exploosives were used to save two guys, and now it has taken two away.

Very sorry to hear this tragic news. I cannot imagine the devastation these awful events bring to the families, friends and local communities.

Our love and heartfelt condolences go out to those that have lost their dear ones, and those injured in this tragedy.

I was told the explosion was heard from 40km away, that's one hell of a bang. Not nice at all.

It's a good thing the factory wasn't in a more heavily populated area or there could have been a lot more people killed and injured.
