Noisy gearshifting

Afternoon guys.

Has anybody out there ever had their gearbox make a loud 'clunk' (like a stone hitting your bellypan) when they're going up the box? How loud is it, I hear you ask. Difficult to say - but it's clearly audible at speeds of 70-80 with a pair of 50mm Termis happily barking away in the background. It doesn't always do it, and doesn't feel any different from a 'usual' gear change (no extra pressure required to change) - in fact, for 10 minutes I thought I was just riding a road with lots of debris on it, until the penny dropped that it wasn't stones making the noises.

Cheers.
