British WW2 Civil Defence Film "A New Fire Bomb"

Recommended Posts

Ha Ha , I do like these old wartime advisory films from the" Ministre", we used to get ones on Atomic war when we were in the police, always narrated by the actor Patrick Allen, the 60s army films were good as well, we had them as cadets, How to use ranges correctly, Dangers of Ammunition and Ordnance etc, these went right through to the late 70s and were so outdated , the one i  really liked was why you should,nt wear Ammo boots in an ammo or ordnance store!!!

I,d call it just plain getting old and eyesight playing me up........... Little joke, A very young Nun was having a bath in the monestery, there was a knock on the door, "Who is it" "Its the blind man" came the reply, she thought the chap was desperate for the loo, and her Christian duty to let him come in seeing he was blind, he came in ,said" Oh nice tits, where do you want these blinds"
