Are the Russians coming?

A much smaller scale, but it always impresses me when I go to Fox's Timber up Withnell (near Abbey Village). An old quarry adjacent for storage, full of felled trees. Meanwhile all sorts of wood products, piles of bark chips, and composters.

Fascinating, and using all parts.

    This my worry with Putin. Old school Soviet. Show of military strength on borders. The wheel is turning full circle. I sort of get the argument of leaving the Eastern bloc countries to the Ruskies but

Spooky (literally)

This story has cropped up just as I am in the middle of the latest Mick Herron novel "Slough House" which opens with MI6 carrying out a revenge assassination of one of the Novichok poisoners using private sector funding

Supposedly its going to be Gary Oldman.

It's not how I imagine him. I picture Ted Roach from The Bill.

not slobbish enough... I'd imagine there'd be a few contenders on here

Jackson Lamb? He sounds exciting enough.

Has he got an old pal from the SBS days who still with 'the firm', helps him out with intel, name Clint Source?

Is Jackson a hard-bitten maverick? Would he drive at 45mph in a 30 zone if it was to stop a former lover falling victim to chockabloc poisoning off a DHS agent gone rogue?

Is he mates with Jack Reacher?

Nope

Our spymaster is overweight, puts his feet on the desk with his toes poking through his socks, drinks whiskey, smokes high tar cigarettes, lives on chinese takeaways and farts and belches a lot.

His team are all secret service no hopers and usually muck everything up and have to endure his sarcasm, in one book they were keeping an eye on an obvious Nigel Farage clone but accidentally killed him.

Perfect précis. There's a pretty obvious Boris Johnson clone running through the series as well. 

No surprises, he's also a cunt.😃

That'll be PJ rather than BJ

That's the fella

I've just finished the bit where they went to recover the Russian body they left in the back of the car to find it surrounded by the local Doggers... never happened to James Bond 🙂

Nothing to see at the Ukrainian border.

Aye what a way to set up an invasion. Work with China to weaken the west by obliterating economies with a virus and orchestrating division with brexit and trump.

All one big plan all this. Called it the day Trump got in power. We are due one massive kick off and it wont be pretty.

Putin wants his legacy

A man who can get Alec Baldwin to do a hit for him in plain sight is someone to be very very worried about 👀

A couple of their bombers had a day out off Skegness yesterday I'm surprised news hasn't got us believing WW3 is about to begin.

They said something about a UK spy plane over Crimea 😬

Oh there's just as much from our lot going over there as there is coming over here. Cold War alive and well!

On their way to do some sightseeing in Salisbury nothing to see here 

If we went to war with Russia who’d be the gaffer in charge of the decisions?

Boris? 
 

Wow that’s frightening

Boris still doesn’t really understand what a Northern Ireland is.

If he saw a Russian plane flying over Downing Street he’d probably wave at it and claim it to be a beautiful Brexit bonus the thick cunt.

That didn't work out well then. Russia proper fucked by the virus too.

Anyway, we've sent some troops to Poland for this border issue. Perhaps quite useful if Putin is flexing his muscles again, add them to those in the Baltic states, and we'll have a few available...

To be fair, it isn’t BJ advising the Chiefs of Staff, it’s them advising him.
