Depends how good an aim the nuke had, to be fair... one pointed at London could land in Dublin
Depends how good an aim the nuke had, to be fair... one pointed at London could land in DublinI think, like I said earlier, dying soon after the nuclear holocaust would be preferable over surviving it and witnessing the aftermath.
Ironically it wouldn’t affect us here in rural Ireland as much as it would in a big city like London. That would be hell. Life in Kerry would kind of be the same. People would do more hunting and fishing and all get along nicely.

gets you thinking about those who live in deprived areas where one cannot access health services are as good as dead if they suddenly come down with diabetes, or if you were in times where people were dying from an unknown illness until it was officially recognised or as long as sugar was invented
What makes you think America would hit China even if they were aiming for it.Haha. No I’m assuming it would happen elsewhere like China or America.
The assumption is that it's not Trump actually setting the aim...What makes you think America would hit China even if they were aiming for it.
I've still got my copy of the Government classic leaflet "Protect and Survive", which explains what to do in the event of a nuclear attack.Why worry about what might never happen, when I was a young man we all were considering building fall out shelters!
Interestingly, there was supposedly one man in the Channel Islands during the. As I remember he was T1 and in the resistance....????
Listen very carefully, I shall inject zis only vonce!The Insulin Resistance?

Do you have all those leathered bog burials in Kerry? Would it be like meet the zombie ancestors? Bet they knew a thing or two about brewing, and zombie good craic.
I was a small sickly baby during the Cuban missile crisis, and my T1 mother briefly obsessed about stockpiling the obscure type of milk that was the only thing I tolerated at the time... (Guess she reckoned that there was no point to stockpiling insulin.)

IN fiction, the standard scenario seems to be that you raid all the local and non-local pharmacies and then die after 6 months when you run out! But I'm not a particularly fast runner, so I reckon the zombies would get me first.
Interestingly, there was supposedly one man in the Channel Islands during the WW2 German occupation, where the limited insulin supplies meant that all the T1s died after the insulin ran out, who went off grid and starved himself and survived. Unfortunately I can't find the link, so I don't know whether he was early in diagnosis or maybe even a T2.... As I remember he was T1 and in the resistance....????

I wonder if one fed grain to cattle before they were slaughtered and then ate the raw pancreas from them would it help?I was a small sickly baby during the Cuban missile crisis, and my T1 mother briefly obsessed about stockpiling the obscure type of milk that was the only thing I tolerated at the time...

You dead right Mel, there is no escape. Chernobyl set off all the alarms at Sellafield nuclear plant in Cumbria when it rained and the fell sheep couldn't be eaten for years.Depends how good an aim the nuke had, to be fair... one pointed at London could land in Dublin
