Great War truck Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Good old BBC. "They may undertake controlled explosions at the site". That is going to really annoy the neighbours. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-29238850 Apparently they found uniforms as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timnorfolk Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 well apart from the stuff he probably shouldn't have and the stuff he shouldn't have because of the possible way he obtained it, have to say it was an interesting little collection.

Great War truck Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 That looked more than just the detonating charge, so the bomb squad got that right then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.303fan Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Your not allowed anything there day's. seriously, this is a problem. Not just the fact of a lot of old ammo, the deterioration is a often overlooked is there a safe way to get bombs defused? I still like a few as boundary markers.

GeePig Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I still like a few as boundary markers. That could be an interesting way of dealing with trespassers 'BANG!' "Now stay OFF of my land!" trevor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Lawrence Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 According to the Daily Torygraph the St. Albans collection contained a British flag, uniforms, helmets as well as a Lee Enfield rifle and a machine gun and according to their excited reporter all were destroyed in a controlled explosion. I have yet to see an unexploded British flag or uniform!! So much for responsible reporting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, are they suggesting that a controlled explosion is the correct way to destroy a British flag? trevor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
