Bloody hell M8 ,, it solves nothing.

They blew up the pub in B,ham city that us apprentices used to use on Friday nights (Mullberry Bush) ( I wasn't there obviously) Murdered 21 people and countless atrocious injuries inflicted. Solved nothing.

I was working in the Rhondda area sometime after that , drinking after hours in a pub up a mountain around midnight when the police arrive . They'd had a call from the Welsh Nationlalists saying there was a bomb planted there . So they lock the doors and

everyone starts casually having a look under seats while I'm $hitting a brick .

Then the Welsh police remove their hats and join the rest of us for a pint.

you reckon Zee,?

thats not even half a ton, the average car could hold that.

Deke, its never really stopped, it just didnt make the national news so much cos it was on a much smaller scale,

and from a personal viewpoint, I cant see it ever stopping, not until the UK government do like the Falklands,

after all, its in the Irish parliment constitution that NI (a part of the UK) belongs to Eire, and that Ireland will do everything in its power to reclaim it.

much as Argentina with the Falklands (Malvinas)

that in itself is a declaration of war, but the UK wont do anything about it because the USA wont allow it.

I saw a van parked up in a lay by when it was being reported on the TV Steps, and it didnt have a livery on it from what I could see.

600 lbs that is a lot of explosive over ten old bags of cement frightening stuff.

600 lbs that is a lot of explosive over ten old bags of cement frightening stuff.

to use the term funny is wrong,

but I remember finding it amusing when bombs in England were shock horror reported as being extremely large at a few hundred lbs, when we were 'used' with having devices of 1000's lbs ,

its not funny, but I suppose it one of those things you get accustomed to, as with everything in life, its all relative.

some people would baulk at wiring a 27 bedroom mansion, others would think such a small job not worth their while pricing up.

what I meant Zee was you could fit 600 lbs in a car easily enough.

Thats true Steps, but could you hide from view as easily in a car, not wanting to argue just saying is all
