  2. We seem to be getting lots of those lately. Mined ewe, me aged Pa reckons
    there's loads more in the Thames, based on the numbers he saw drop in the
    last Unpleasantness. And in the Welsh Harp.

    There are a lot more UXBs in Germany, apparently. Partly because a
    helluva lot of bombs dropped were duds, partly because a helluva lot
    were dropped without being aimed, and partly because a helluva lot more
    were dropped anyway.

    Probly Amatol and pretty stable unless the original mix was very impure
    in which case a lot of sweating separation might occur. The fuse OTOH if
    intact might be a fulminate device and highly unstable *but* is probably
    dud anyway as it didn't explode on ground impact, unless the original
    loaders forgot to prime it!

    Still worth a YTC award though!

    It can't. You need a mobile phone for that.

    Probably the same way that using a mobile phone near a petrol pump can
    cause a raging fireball.

  11. **** nose; I'm impressed at the knee-jerk reaction of the Italian plod.
