As an EX -Serviceman,i think that YOU are APATHETIC, given the scenario of another global conflict, where do you stand amongst your fellow countrymen
, I Know where i stand ,Have done it before and WILL do it again if my country requires my services. LOUD, PROUD AND BRITISH!!!!!!!!!firstly , this is a DIY forum, and a scrap metal discussion at that, so i have made no mention of my patriotism or otherwise.
For the record, I am far from apathetic, and whilst I am not personally in the Services, I have a family with a proud Military history, in both the army and the Navy, going back not decades, but centuries. These are people that you will know from your history lessons.
regardless of how any of us feel on both historical and current issues of global conflict locally or globally, there is a time and a place, and a discussion on the costs of scrap copper does not seem to be it.

America did nowt in ww1 and were gonna do the same during ww2 until pearl harbour that was over 2 years into the war. I understand americans are pround as are we but dont come on hear preaching that we wouldnt of won with out you.

Nice little job today, CH upgrade remove the cylinder, its been in since mid 50`s obviously made by a metalworker for his own home , weighs at least 4 times a normal cylinder so at £35 for a standard modern cylinder . It should be a nice little earner along with the rest of the copper rip out.
And as only ten mins from the local scrappy i should easily beat sylvans $175 an hour for wasting half hour of my time
Gasmatz dont kid youself we would have won the war if it wasn`t for the yanks

So where would america have launched "their" invasion europe from (in order to save us from 'zee germans') had the ROYAL AIR FORCE not held out agaist a year long bombardment our our towns, cities, and airfields so that 'zee nazis' gave up invading good ol' GBR? fooking long way to paddle across the atalantic to calais!
besides, you only stopped the japs by dropping the atom bomb - AND IT WAS A BRIT WHO TOLD YOU HOW TO DO THAT!!!
That said, copper is rather pricey (seems to be worth enough at the moment to dig up large distances of it in the middle of the night at least)
so IMHO a trip to the scrappy on the way home is well worth it - definatly pay for a well earned day off once in a while
Careful - as an ex-pongo, you could just be redirecting the offence
. Let's not forget that some matelots and booties hardly covered themselves in glory in the Shatt Al Arab in the recent past, did they?! Anyhoo, scrap metal....
Wish I got £35 for every old cylinder I weigh in, I went down the scrappy not long ago to weigh one in and got £12.50
But I also had 3 waste bags of all old copper cut up fairly small, the bags were packed, and got £153 for them
