We had two bomb threats in Brum on Friday too - two 'men' were arrested for it. I'd like to say what I think of them, but I'd be banned.

One that was blown up by the army has been confirmed as 'non life threatening'-which means it was either delibretly left to scare others or was accidently left behind by a shopper.

We came home early because the police evacuated the whole area around Broad Street - scary though as there were police "sniffer dogs" cheking out the cars down by where we had parked before we were allowed down the road to the car
