    I told Chad to keep his head down

    and for very good reason ................

    BBC NEWS | Scotland | Glasgow, Lanarkshire and West | RAF Tornado crashes on hillside

    When we stopped there for a lukewarm leather burger or whatever it was we ate ??? he was the highest thing for miles around. They would have used him for bombing practice.

    Not good , a beautiful place , I hope the crew ejected OK
    2011 Triumph Tiger 800 - "Black Pussy" - MMMM Nice !!!
    2000 Suzuki DRZ400S - "Ol' Yella" - very bright
    2011 Peugeot V-Clic 50cc - "Scoot" - It's my wife's, an enjoyable ride.

    I have a house , but I can't guarantee it's safe !!

    Unsure of the cause other than low flying at high speed, a lot of activity here at the camp in Lossie tonight, always the case after a plane down

    As much as I curse them for flying around my flat at all hours of the night, be it the Tornados or the search and rescue sea kings, these guys have a dangerous job to do and I can only admire their guts.

    Condolences to friends and families of the flight crew.

    It is always dangerous training for war, it is such a shame that yet another family have to go through the grieving process.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE
