Outside my flat today (SUN 2/2/97) there were 2 controlled explosions
carried out on one vehicle in the open air car park next to the REP theatr.
The first explosion woke me up 8.15 am(a major achievement) and we looked
out of the window to see broad street and the other roads surrounding the
car park closed off by police. They used one of their robots to do most of
the explosions. I wonder if it will make it to the local rag? BTW, HI
simon, i think it works now.
