I would like to know if anything has been done about the minefields that were still in place as late as 1993? I mean I like mutton as much as the next man but as a signatory to the international agreement on banning such weapons it just crossed my mind if anything was being done. A good mate of mine has told me of the infinite hours of enjoyment they had playing "hurl the rock at the landmine" as a adolescent on the island. Good clean fun eh?
