Although the up side then was that they had the best bar on camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennpickard Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 I think we all need to support non proliferation of nuclear weapons, and yes support a reduction in the weapons that the 8 or 9 countries who now possess them. Remember, they may be "Dodgy" now, but with continuous testing and new techniques/materials, they may eventually get the ability to put one in the middle of Potters Bar !!!
