Nuclear

The Trinity test detonated 60 years ago today, bringing with it mushroom clouds and trinitite, inner shelters and a variety of nuclear-related fears. The Bomb Project has links to everything nuclear, including SimNuke and Things Magazine also has a few nuclear-related links, including the cover of a great looking book -The beginning or the end.

Today, I attempted to find one of Southampton's nuclear bunkers- the bunker on Bassett Green Road, as opposed to the bunker in Bitterne. The actual location was difficult to pinpoint, so the closest looking building to that which may have been disguising a nuclear bunker appeared to belong to a furniture restoration company. I suppose they may restore inner shelters in time for the apocalypse. Not actually locating even the outside of the bunker, left me to conclude that the inside must contain at least some resemblance to Waiting for the End of the World's brown and white tablecloth and plastic garden chair approach to bunker decorating.
