Tell Me Something............Anything!

Never really believed that it would get this mad - Putin seems to have made a veiled threat about nukes if Nato (or anyone else) gets too involved.
China will be watching very carefully (watch out Taiwan).
North Korea could then chance its arm. Could be "end of days".

Sod it, I'm off to the pub.

I thought I’d put the RT (Russia Today) news channel on... they’re re-running documentaries about how the Ukrainians are the aggressors in the separatist controlled (Russian backed) states and how Ukraine are breaking the Minsk agreement...

It's a M.A.D.* world, and so Putin really would have to be mental to risk that.

We wouldn't know it was coming.

The Russians have been surveying undersea installations for years and with the onset of a war situation would destroy all cable and optical links to the UK, not to mention power, oil and gas supplies. And our government would shut down all internet, phones and media transmissions.

im on my way out anyway so it wont bother me... a five minute warning and i'll arse my best bottle of whisky;) shame for my kids and grandkids and everyone elses' tho.
but russia will be a wasteland; as will china, so not all bad. yanks have plenty space in bunkers.

I’m up in the loft tomorrow, I’m sure I’ve still got a “Protect and Survive” pamphlet from the 80’s up there somewhere, doors will be off and my “inner refuge” will be created. Emergency supplies will be entirely bottles of wine!

Your doors are what's keeping the looters from getting your wine. Besides you'll find a few newspapers are just as effective :) Up here for thinking, down there for dancing.

I’m clearly not thinking this through properly after the third glass. Maybe the looters getting the wine is the best outcome!
