    The Theat of Nuclear Annihilation in 1980s Britain

CND was...

    The Theat of Nuclear Annihilation in 1980s Britain

    It gets worse, so Lita probably won't play and now Lua Lua is felled by an ongoing injury.......can it get any more depressing.

    Lance Corporal James Brynin

    He lived with his family for a number years next door to my Father in law in Lancing before they moved to Pulborough, I remember him well.....my Father in law is very down after hearing this news, he is elderly and an ex squaddie himself....a sad sad day for all concerned.
