Janet Bodmin, Dee Donnington and Angela Anderson-Shelta first meet in Mid-Wales in the early eighties when the Government is offering cash to local councils to build underground nuclear fallout shelters asking participating councils to test their defences and emergency services with military exercises. This is a great opportunity for the politically ambitious Anthony Anderson-Shelta, husband to Angela, Conservative Chief Executive of the local council, a man who is useless in bed and yet badly wanted by his personal assistant, Ruth Tremlett. Written with a liberal dose of British humour, Jennifer Greens A Small Nuclear Fallout follows the three women as they join the Greenham Common womens anti-nuclear protest movement (much against the wishes of Angelas husband Anthony) and watch as all the well-laid plans of the council gradually fall apart including the anticipated visit of the Iron Lady herself, Margaret Thatcher.

On leaving the service her career progressed through mechanical engineering into senior posts in university and arts administration in London.
