Swampy's Tunnel

[jobjockey]

Why didn't any one see this being
made, surely it wasn't built overnight
I am against the waste of the project
but more so against this stupid Swampy and
his gang.

[emmie]

its what i mentioned on another thread about this, someone must have noticed it being built.

Not necessarily. The German guards didn't notice Tom, Dick and Harry being dug. And they were supposedly watching out for such occurrences.

[emmie]

they have been in the front of Euston Station since September protesting about the possible removal of the trees there. One protestor said that the authorities had brought in a cherry picker to remove the protest site thus dislodging soil into the tunnel, if they don't come out soon i can see this ending badly

funny you should say that
I saw the tunnel correctly shored ( that means propped up to you proles: wood obligingly creaks when it is stressed, whereas mechanical ( iron) shoring fails without warning
and thought "teenagers aint done vat!"

Now how despite being a know all did I know vat?
My father was a miner in escape attempts from Oflag VIh I think

oh he was a miner then medicine (!) yes boys and girls 1935
RAMC Dunkirk and prison camp

but not on Tom Dick or Harry - the book was of course required reading.

so I thought the revolting protesters had found and dug out the tunnels ( London being very tunnelly. - did you kn ow the GPO and the underground had both 'lost' tunnels?)

Now how did the teenage mutants block the sea water vents at Sellafield?

( a hundred ABers foo and go 'wot all dat abart den' and sit back with their brilliant one liners and quips )

they didnt of course - their retired grand-dayddies said that they were so committed to green fings what cd the olds do help

and the old age divers got their pals together forra bit of fun and blocked the sea outlets ( concrete sets underwater but only I know that) and then went back to their pints

and I did wonder if the euston protesters had got mining grandfathers ....

or they did it themselves in which case I wdnt go near it

oh in a proper mine the mine working should slope up at 1 in 120 - so that the filled trucks can roll down under their own weight but not too fast

when I had to show my daddy wasnt a member of the Kray gang I used his mine blasting certificate showing he was down an emerald mine in Manaus at the relevant times. Translations not included I left it to them

bitter cold wind outside

fill it with sewage..then it will become there home away from home.

[Peter Pedant]

Has anyone see " the assassination of heydrich" ?

Bodie and Sebastian Flyte get holed up in the crypt of st methodius church
and are gassed and flooded

( Heydrich kinda dies from horsehair embolism, because half the car seat is still in him. None of the doctors will debride the wound for fear of being shot afterwards)

[fiveleaves]

Appears to be quite dangerous and in danger of flooding. If you are going to build a tunnel you have to make sure its done properly

[webbo3]

fill it about half full of water, they won't want to live in water.

[fender62]

webbo3, i think swampy is already filled with mmm something.

[webbo3]

lol, yeah, it ain't water.

[iluvmargie]

Poor Swampy he's only trying to stop an unnecessary project that will wreak havoc to the countryside - good for him!

Wish I had his guts.

[ummmm]

Stink bombs.

[fender62]

iluvmargiem he's wrong on many levels, he does not see the big picture and has no idea about rail infrastructure.

//////Wish I had his guts./////

margie,if I ever get my hands on him, I will hand them to you.

[pixie374]

I'm with margie, anyway.

[iluvmargie]

I don't care what anybody says, I agree with him.

Thank you pixie.

did you hear swampy had a Heart attack? He had to have a bypass!
