I don't thing it would have been the MOD sorting out bombs if it was on their base, too late.
And halloween, my DPM comes in very handy, creep up behind them when they come to our door, scare then senseless. Can't think why we ain't had none in 3 years now

Strange that, as soon as I read the first post, a series of about 20 fireworks started pounding away just down the road!
