Bomb disposal - Advice Please

[renewablejohn]

Have a word with your local fire service there often quite willing to do an "exercise" and I believe also have the authority to call the bomb squad in.

Maybe it was an old oxy or acetylene bottle which you uncovered while draining the pond but with all the stories of a bomb in the pond you thought it best to call the bomb squad in to do a full sweep of the area.

would clear the pond for free pdq when the detonation squad came in.

Practice you tee off or what ever it's called, aim for the point end, extra points for fireworks.

 

[llamedos]

Or chuck in

I am in a "local" fire service,and you can bu***r off.Our idea of an exercise does not involve the high jump.Call the police again,they wear stab vests,we don't.

Not sure a stab vest is much use against a bomb........

It does look a sort of mess..... But it's eggs and omelettes.......

The amount of dead trees, suckers growing out the bank and brambles is phenomenal.....

Will start piecing it together again tomorrow

It will be fine. And I had a nice nose around that menage you just finished for will whilst just doing a few hedges, very tidy, top job and I know he's happy. But more importantly so is "h"

 

[Simon Chiles]

I thought that too considering they were happy to come

Don't you go taking any risks, I don't want to waste time trundling up to the NAAC to make a speech about what a good bloke you were!

I have held my tounge on this thread for various reasons .
If you want an little advice leave the pond alone !
As you can see I am from Germany and the subject of UXB 's comes up every day over here .
Most weeks there is a 250kg or a 500 kg UXB found somewhere over here and to be honest even the experts don't get it right !!
I have found a couple myself small stuff 10.5 cm antitank rounds and teller mines not that big overall but enough to blow me and that great big tractor to heaven or hell .
It might be big or funny to post on here ,but please insist that the experts check it out , no matter how big your 360 is ,it is no protection when one goes bang .
Not sure who built the best bombs during WW2 but the funny thing is they can all go bang and fu#k your day up 70 odd years later .
Please let your next post be that plod and the Army have taken you seriously and hauled a lump of scrap away to blow up somewhere else.
I lost a good friend last year to a piece of 70 year old scrap ,
Do the right thing ,then post the pictures afterwards !

Remember having an induction at DSDM Kineton, basically, if it doesn't kill you, it's not done its job.

That sounds like the motto of a Suicide Bomber!

If you still alive, you haven't done your job, and killed anyone else, and you go to prison, where there are no celestial virgins, unless you subscribe to the Urban Dictionary Translation of Allah Akbar - "Allah Akbar . Arabic for "I love to take it in the ass". Generally shouted by suicide bombers before they pull the switch."

Allah Akbaar,

God truly is great!

Ianto.

They don't build bombs for a laugh, or to scare the enemy, they build them to fu#king kill people, that's the point I'm making.

South Cheshire is full of ponds Crewe being a major rail town was an obvious target ,the Luftwaffe also put loads of ordnance down on its bombing runs in and out of Liverpool , there was also a huge munitions factory just over the border at marchweil that they never got but peppered the South Cheshire countryside with bombs in a vain attempt to find it .

I had the job of subsoiling around the old brick buildings when I first moved here, they didn't tell me anything about what went on there till I finished !!!!
