    Nope, I'm going for my Civil Defence greatcoat. Where is the nearest 'Mobile Column' ?

    Such bollocks though, isn't it.
    We plotted fallout drops during ROC exercises in the 80s - 90s with a genuine feeling of 'this could happen, relatively easily'.
    Now there's the outside chance of a dirty bomb from some nutter, or fat boy slipping his Chinese leash and making a ham-fisted attempt.
    MAD from cold missile-owning professionals playing balancing games it ain't.

    Ah for the days when we thought "duck and cover" would actually work.

    Damn it, just paid out for a 2 year guarantee extension on my computer.
    Anyone know if I get a 14 day cooling off period for internet purchase?

    If things go pear shaped then I'm not sure 'cooling off period' is the right turn of phrase :lol:

    Check the contract to see if it has an 'afterlife' provision. The coverage may be portable to your next stage. Assuming you aren't a full blown atheist.

    So sorry, Diane. What miserable timing. When my Bob was rear-ended almost 20 years ago now, the doctor said to expect some neck and back pain about 6 months later. The doc was right, and Bob wished he had done some PT right after the accident. Take care!
