Cripes! Glad Al-Qaeda don't know about us!
Gainsey's tip is spot on. The catering size tins you get from the Mess/NAAFI are excellent, but it really has to be cabbage, so you have to get your ammuntion sorted. Don't want another Islandwhana, do we? Smaller bore varieties allow greater flexibility in available ordnance when the screaming hordes are at the barricade. Socks, tennis balls, your neighbours napkin etc.
I have seen quite large pieces of un-peeled fruit wrapped in a bra deployed, I assure you. And we won on that particular night, but we were only up against ATC, and the supplier of the bra had defected from their side minutes earlier.
Should you choose to 'go large', you can also big it up before firing by giving it a name like 'Big Bertha' (the big f*ck off train mounted jobber that shelled Blighty from France in WW1).
Whatever you decide to do, practice several times. Make sure the thing makes a bloody great bang and hopefully lots of smoke (this can be done independently, just go easy). Accuracy is totally unimportant for once.
Good luck mate, let us know how it goes.
