    Just been watching The Hamster presenting a Top Gear-style re-enactment of
    the Guy Fawkes episode, including loading a replica HoP with gunpowder and
    setting it off. Big, technical, bang. Good it was.

    So, if you had the button there >.< to blow up Parliament, would you press
    it?

  3. Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, platypus
    You can take the boy out of N.I...

    No, not really. I *would* like to press the tit on a *big* bang some
    time. A nuke would be kind of cool. But I'd like some sort of assurance
    that no one would get hurt.

    Can't see much point unless you've had time to arrange it for the State
    Opening tomorrow.

    Except for Alan Clarke.

    <Thinks again>

    Well, he was, too, but in a different way.

    Filmed near me. I have spoken to people who were nearby at the time;
    making things go bang is their job, and they were "impressed".
    Probably not, actually. It would only make things worse. Tomorrow
    would be good, though.
