Disruption in Bath today
As a change to all those discussions about the best way to get from London to Bath, it might be best to avoid the city completely today and tomorrow.

It's surprising that ordnance this size can still be discovered 75 years after it was dropped, but similar events happen several times a year in Britain, and there are seldom any lasting results, only temporary disruption.
There is no record of what the German airmen shouted as they dropped the bomb, but I doubt it was in Arabic.

In Belgium they have a serious volume of ordnance discovered on a daily basis and that is from WW1, I understand Vietnam peninsula still has a healthy trade in amputee support and mine clearance from when the happy Americans rained down death on the evil peasants.
You know, it is almost as if killing people was wrong.
German cries! (before they went mad) ask red Ken.

Red Ken has this unfortunate habit of falling into the Godwin's Law trap whenever someone annoys him. That's a reference to his latest reaction to the hooha about anti-Zionism and anti-semitism on the left (something along the lines of Hitler being a Zionist until he went mad - sometimes I wonder if Ken is still all quite there - heis quite the UXB himself these days).
