Meaning I don't work anymore.I'm now a woman of leisure aka housewife..hence I don't have to face workmates like you had. Y'know the "loud" kind!

Rest assure it wasn't the fear you dread from your past. I am sorry that such sounds bring you back to such hard times. But on a lighter note... be glad don't work with some of the people I work with because the sounds that come out of their buttocks could be mistakend for bomb explosions. (:O)

But living here in Doha it didn't really perturb me.I'd just assume a firework session or some other celebration. But years ago, back in Sri lanka during the war, when we hear such noises our hearts would be full of dread and our blood turns to water as we listen up for the dreaded sound of an ambulance siren confirming our fears...yet another bomb explosion!

Your answers were awesome, but I'll go with Brit and Vega's answer of a sonic boom. There was a airshow this weekend. Although the show supposedly ended Sunday, maybe some of the planes were leaving in fashion. I personally liked what my dream came up with... it was a metorite that impacted somewhere in the middle of the desert, and now there is an 8 legged mutant camel making it's way to Doha.

The end

but I checked with QDC and they confirmed it wasn't that. LOL!

It was a mini sonic boom caused by a mass of expats rushing into QDC to get their ration of pork :o)
