    IRONIC

    My wife kept saying, in the 70's in the UKicon, Terry Nation brought out a series called SURVIVORS 1975 on BBC television.
    Thats how its listed on YouTube. People at the time said how far fetched it was....watch it and make your own minds up.
    Having watched 3 episodes the comparisons with this COVID-19 is unbelievable starting with a Chinese Scientist dropping a flask of bacteria which spread around the world.
    If you are at home and have the time its an amazing series, bit blurry but watchable.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    The EU funded comic book "infected", published circa 2012, also foreshadows almost exactly what's been happening worldwide with covid 19 pandemic over the past 6. months

    Cinders,
    What it seems to me, going by all the films, the guys with automatic guns seem to drop them and run, due to the volume of Zombies coming at them.
    If you keep calm and your drills are good, you should cope admirably. Failing all that, fix bayonets and retreat gracefully at a smart pace.
    Glad Australiaicon and Britainicon are islands, easier to control, none of this illegal migration crap
