Think there's a mills bomb in there some where that I found in 1986 with a metal detector it came up in the middle of a foot path at the back of the old accm blocks. Called out the guard, who called out EOD bloke turns up has a look. sucks his teeth and tuts a bit and says "its a training grenade lads" still gave him something to do other than drinking tea.

Sounds like Troop Stores!

Available here if anyone else wants it!

Damn you roadster for making me listen to that and putting it back in my head, I'll be whistling it all night now - curses!

If you like looking at old radios, you will like the museum. If you don't, join the Signals and get in for free.

That made my day UKTAP. You missed the coffee with hidden tea bags in them!!!

How dare you forget Monty's caravan!

There is a bit where you can hear the engineering of a Triffid RR link, whilst gazing at the legend that is Bruin.

Also there's a super space age soldier, dolled up in 'Yeoman'. A bit like the 'here's what you could have won' part of Bullseye. Yeoman was the suggestion for Bowman, before the consortium fielding Yeoman wrapped.

All in all, a very good experience and I recommend it to all who may be in the Dorset area.

I don't know, I'd have paid good money to see that

**chocolate_frog** · 09-06-2012, 14:36

Don't see the facination with Rhianna meself...

And isn't Jenifer a scouser?

A pairing of Emma Watson and Charleze Theron v Katerine Heigl and the bird who plays Eliot Reed on scrubs on the other hand.

May the best pair win!
