I live close enough to Faslane that I'd never know what was happening.

You live in Southend? I'm so sorry! :(

I live 5 minutes away from GCHQ. Could prove to be problematic.

I live 15-20minutes from GCHQ. That's outside fallout range right?

I'd probably tell long term crush I love them, smack an enemy (if near by) and have a last tug

I live in Cheshire an hour from Liverpool, an hour from Manchester, an hour from any sort of appreciable industry in any direction.

I cant see how the immediate blasts would bother me. Its the fallout and infrastructure collapse that would be my worry. Would probably be a few days, rather than a few minutes until death. Assuming the riot squads or death gangs dont roll up.

I guess that Brighton (Gecko), Hastings (Errkal) and somewhere in Wales (Karl) may not be prime targets... there is a chance that GRcade could continue onwards. The tech team would find a way :wub: :toot: .

If they're using stink bombs, maybe...

In my city there's a good chance no-one would notice the difference if it were hit by a nuke. It might actually improve the city centre.

Sadly 3 minutes won't give is enough time to nip into The Hatherley for a pint.

Christ, 3 minutes. Not a lot I can get done during that time but I might message Hexx and Moggy to belatedly admit that Clinton probably would have been the better choice!

So I'm most likely going to be stuck in an office block with people I don't really care about or want to spend my last minutes with when the missiles start hitting. What a shitter.

At least you get to leave work early on that day.

I'd probably do away with myself, to avoid the long, painful death from radiation poisoning.

Then it turns out to be a false alarm.
