But £18k for a hole in the ground :shocked: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it is actually called Chichley Hill, and the 'phone line is a bit of a giveaway, but keep it to yourself as it is top secret.:-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlienFTM Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 There is a great set of ROC films from the 50s or 60s on YouTube simulating a nuclear escalation and the work of the ROC. I watched them all last year and it reminded me why when I first stumbled across NBC warfare in 1975, I really, really didn't want to be party to nuclear war. Curiously, as I type, I have Barry McGuire's "Eve of Destruction" playing. "Don’t you understand what I’m tryin’ to say "Can’t you feel the fears I’m feelin’ today? "If the button is pushed, there’s no runnin’ away "There’ll be no one to save, with the world in a grave "[Take a look around ya boy, it's bound to scare ya boy] "And you tell me "Over and over and over again, my friend "Ah, you don’t believe "We’re on the eve "of destruction."
