Lynne the Americans have been spending a lot of time (as have others) creating warheads that create such a heat on impact and explosion that they destroy the chemicals in situ that they are being fired at to destroy.  So it is highly unlikely that any chemical weapons would be realised into the atmosphere as a result of any bombing by the US.  Having said that it isn't foolproof and my own opinion ...

@Carer - but he didn't do printing or developing  which is what @Tracy mentions and as far as i'm aware he did give up the retail premises for various reasons, and it wasn't just about not selling enough photos

we watched the programme last night on Channel 4 and thought it was excellent.  Very interesting to see how the system helped people in different ways back then.  Hearbreakingly sad for the pensioner they showed, brilliant result for the chap in the wheelchair and VERY interesting to see how the lady on disability benefits with a list of things wrong with her as long as you arm behaved and reacted ...

I remember seeing one of the houses on the back beach at Teignmouth being repainted a very bright pink and was a bit taken aback by how bright it was - but within a few months it had faded in the sun to a very pleasant colour.  So she should wait out her 3 years and see what colour it is then!

Brazilnut, I cannot believe you are comparing a small reduction in money given to people by the Govt, to the actions of someone like Hitler I have just watched a report on BBC News interviewing someone who was part of the action to take the Govt to court over this.  Her reason for needing a spare bedroom?  She needs a different mattress on her bed and a different bed to her husband - so ...
