Channel 4 News report that silly string is the latest tool in the GI's armoury in Iraq and Afghanistan. This isn't news - first appeared back in 2005 - but at least it's seasonally amusing. You can see a video report here.

Unsurprisingly, the novel use of silly string is being ascribed to the ingenuity of American soldiers, but as usual the Brits got there first as can be seen here and it's not unusual that the Americans should claim all the glory again!

Time to add your festive methods and tools to deter the ne'er do wells.
