That's a slightly more unusual reason for a run on toilet paper in a warzone, I grant you.

They’ll be too tired to fight.

Dave!

Can't believe they don't get porn in NK, that's a basic human right.

I don't think they have (m)any of those, What's one more missing?

That was the joke, but yes, I understand.

Yes, I was joining in on the joke...

I agree

I’m pretty sure I’ll be on another project but will be interesting to see how they do it.

Dave!

Do you have weapons training etc when you're in places like that. I'm sure you've mentioned that you've worked in difficult environments before?

Just spider sense and be sensible.

Cabinda was the worst, Nigeria second.

Dave!

You've previously mentioned there is respect for trades abroad but I'd assumed you had a Obe Wan Nairobi with you!

I cannot imagine.

But you've reminded me to reread "Don't tell mum I work on the rigs, she thinks I'm a piano player in a whorehouse" he had some hairy scary stories from Africa.

Oh some of the stuff is ridiculous.

I’ll write a couple down which makes you wonder why you didn’t listen more at school

Dave!

That'd be awesome.

Actually probably worthy of a separate forum "storytime" thread. There's probably a couple of members with some good stuff.

Russian ICBMs in play now. I expect that's woken up a few in the west!

It’s going to be pretty spicy until Jan as Biden is going to throw as much money at Ukraine as he can before Trump comes in.

I guess both parties know that come January they're going to be forced to come to the negotiating table, so they're going to be throwing everything at each other until then to strengthen their respective negotiating positions. Unfortunately for Ukraine it seems like Russia are gaining the upper hand, so king Donald will probably award them a bigger share of the kingdom.

Its going to be catnip for Daily Mail journos now who can go wild on their WW3 scare stories for the next while.

They won’t use them with nuclear payloads. But a lot of apologisers will insist we give Russia everything they want.

If your population density looks like this, maybe using nukes isn’t a great idea.
