Grand Slam bomb

[trackend]

I think its really funny so bloody typically British.
Our local rag many years ago had a story of an old girl who had a 3 inch morter bomb standing in her fire place for donkeys years.
She used it to lean the fire irons against and it was still live, detonator and all, mind you it would'nt have made as bigger bang as the GS.
Good story Roy, knowing the UK forces if it had of gone off the poor sods on the gate would have probably been put on a fizzer for deserting their posts. (In an upward direction)

Im sure a C-17 would have no trouble.

Don't look up all the nuclear weapons accidents then, quite an impressive list of screw up's in that area as well.
