    Get orf my land!

    Damn right too.

    Try cycling into the army woods near me. tulip everywhere, little bags, you can't cycle it walk there for tulip. There is even a notice from the army pleading with people to pick their dogs hit up as they use it for training.

    £210k for a meadow? Must be a very large field.

    I'm in Frome later - will go and have a look.

        30 acres. 7k is about right for crappy pasture.

          Maybe the army should put up a sign asking soldiers not to pose for photos with dead people?

            What they did was stupid and unacceptable, but I suspect compassion is hard to come by when you're looking at the body of someone who has just killed and / or injured your comrades.

              I've read research from CXO Advisory that agricultural land, amongst other forms of productive land, are amongst the best ways to diversify from stocks. Jim Rogers has been evangelising agricultural land for ages now. Some people are definitely listening.

                I did six years. Believe me taking pictures with dead people isn't the least of it.

                Judging people by civilian standards when you've not had a wash for four weeks, its 50 degrees every f*cker is shooting at you and you are wearing full body armour, is very easy.

                Seriously I think the whole thing should just be dropped.
                Did you ever take a bowl of spaghetti into the field of conflict?

                  It will of course depend on many factors. Though for whatever reason the parcel in question obviously wasnt.

                  10k could easily be possible. Mines in the levels and worth about half a crown.
