Not in my house thankfully, but up the road. Certainly lit up the sky somewhat.. and set fire to several houses according to reports.
Dunno what voltage, but they are huge pylons and appear to feed the main Folkestone substation so significant :-)

Was a spectacular flash when it went apparantly :-)

I live on the north Kent coast (Herne Bay) and I often get Southend quoted to me by 'store locators' as 'nearby'.
I've had some where near the Great Lakes returned as a "nearest store". This was for a multinational chain, I think it was either Tesco or Asda (Walmart).
Similar here (near Blackpool). Southport is an hour's drive away, but only about 4 miles ATCF across the Ribble estuary.
When I lived in North Devon I got Swansea stores back in the nearest searches. That's about 4 hours driving away.
Do I win?

We haven't yet received the submission from the Falkland Islands...
Argos does't recognise FIQQ 1ZZ as a valid postcode.

Garage does, but the shed behind it went up in smoke

You mean *The* Great Lakes as in Walmart, 100 Thruway Plaza Dr, Buffalo, Erie, NY 14225, USA
I don't know if it was that store but certainly the other side of the pond!
