We're holidaying at Birling Gap and were evacuated today! Exciting! I'll be interested to discover what caused it. Boy 2 and I were exploring geology and saw the cloud arriving.

From what?

I'm guessing sunken WW2 chemicals or lost cargo from shipping.

From what?

They've said it's an onshore air flow, but nothing from France.

Dairy slurry ponds in Holland have a longstanding reputation for causing hydrogen sulphide clouds in the South East, don't they?

Headed in the direction of Hastings. @mickle hope you're all ok.

 

[Drago]

From what?

My guess is some kind of container.

Not from the far side of The Channel/North Sea according to emergency services.

Where are you evacuated to?

The Tiger Inn would be my first choice!
