I note from the news reports that on several raids, the Coalition Forces have discovered respirators and chemical suits; QED if you have that equipment, you have WMD.

...Errrm, what kit do we train in every year?

:confused: :confused: :confused:

Furthermore, there doesn't appear to be any clues as to the age of the NBC kit. I've got a First World War bayonet at home but that doesn't mean I've got the Lee Enfield to go with it. A case of selective reporting.

Also, when you've had an Iraqi breakfast of "Fool Medames", Kibbeh, Laban, Mezzeh, Baba Ghanouj, Hommous and Falafel with your oppos - you will really appreciate the availability of such equipment !

'Course, you could also find the same kit if you raided certain establishments in Soho.

Come to think of it I think I'm developing a rubber fetish out here what with the Respirator, the smell of dank charcoal and the incontinence pants !

Reports in the media here within the last few days have said that the kit was fairly new and in good condition.

In this case just a fishy name, being a bastardisation of the lovely fish.

'twas intended for Art Field Mogs, just to clarify that I was not the one he knew, but you may not have noticed from my post, bit subtle for a Moggie!:p

I am a Pom, incidently.

Just dangling a hook, might have got a bite but worth a try.
