    Best Worst det accomadation

    Currently having a long running banter/ pi55 taking session with an ex royal signals buddy of mine.

    Are Uber popular in your area?

    Never seen an Uber taxi in the village. As they are apparently an online taxi thing and there's probably requirement to put yet another app on your phone to get one there's zero chance of this IT biff ever working out how to book an Uber.

    Anyone had a letter from mobilisation?

    No letters have yet arrived at TB towers and it's all very interesting that a potential call up of senior chaps is a remote possibilty. However if old TB gets the call, boy are we in trouble, a proper KOS with a dicky ticker if the country needs me to move forward we've probably already lost...

    Iron Dome for the UK?

    No need our potential adversaries are miles away not living on our doorstep. Probably be hugely expensive to set up, then even more expense required to maintain and staff all for a possible might be. The general public wouldn't want it because of the cost, the snowflakes wouldn't want it...
