I hope you don't think I was sniping at you Big Grey Man. I was hoping to make a general point.

I just see too many people who are spending lots of time and money for things that are so unlikely but ignoring the much more common dangers. I met one lad who said he could not afford to take a car skid training course as he was saving to put EMP arrestors on his telephone line. Which is more likely to save his life?

I doubt if the hospital bunker was involved in a routine helicopter exercise but why not give the hospital a call and ask them, there will be someone there responsible for contingency planning who will probably be happy to chat, even to invite you in.

I ran the 'bunker' under our county hall for many years and I would have been ashamed if any test of its resilience affected the public and we transfer tested monthly.

We are actively looking to move to Fife ASAP so if you know of any bungalows or decent building plots around please let me know.
