Sorry to change topic here but are we going to include aviation in this weekend get together ?? , or is it just an excuse to leave the wife for the weekend ??. What about arranging something around the Easter period , and have a day out at YAM some other time ( a day trip maybe )

That’s just dessert. Ask for a pizza in a Scottish chippy and they’ll ask you if you want it battered or just plain deep fried.

Yup , a deep fried Pizza , I can hear my arteries crinkling shut right now , salt + sauce , superb .

I gave Snapper a lift after Leg-ends, the coach had buggered off and left him behind.

Nice enough chap but I do wish he wouldn’t bark at every moving object we past during our short trip together.

I have already started to stock pile King Edwards and hair spray, remind me is it York or Paris we’re heading for?

And I’m off to the Garden Centre for a bag of Ammonium Nitrate fertilizer , a bag of BBQ Charcoal and a greenhouse Sulphur fumigator – for my Tomato plant , naturally , what else would I be doing officer ?? 😀

the main problem with going up to East Fortune is that they don’t have any decent beer up there !!!! 😀 😀 😀 😀

(ducks to avoid flying can of McEwans)

Elvington doesnt sounds bad… somewhere else I’ve not been..

perhaps it may be easier to set up some informal local meet-ups as well as a ‘biggie’ ??

for instance, if anyone is over this way to visit East Kirkby or Coningsby then they’re welcome to send me a message and I’ll meet them for cuppa tea.. assuming that I’m here and not at work down south..

Neil.

Hey !! , we don’t drink that fizzy pale stuff you call lager , and we don’t drink that flat fart inducing stuff you call “bitter ” 🙂 , Tennants Special or Belhaven Best – those are real beers 😀 .
Anyway , who’s drinking beers when there are loads of lovely malts to sample , you only need a couple of beers to slake your drought – then it’s time for an Aberlour or Highland Park ……..
We wouldn’t dream of heading South to sack any lovely old English towns , but if you can get a mob together maybe we could join up and sack Paris !!
😀

Can you imagine Snapper , Ian , yourself , Steve Young, KeithMac et al roaming North Berwick on a Saturday night !!!! 😀
” I’m sorry officer , I did’nt think it would burn so fast ” , as the caravan park burns ……………………………:D

Sorry to diverse here , but , would anybody be interested in travelling to the Yorkshire Air Museum , the North East Museum at Newcastle or the Dumfries and Galloway Museum ???. I mean like planning this next year sometime ??? , there are a few of us Scots up here who would like to put some names to faces – I know that Keith Mac organised a ” Workshop Weekend” at East Fortune – we were supposed to get access to the Vulcan for some hands on work – unfortunately the management reshuffle at EF threw this up in the air , if anybody is interested I will attempt to organise something – or even better – ask Keith Mac if he could organise something at EF . I think it would be pretty interesting doing a workshop weekend with Keith , ( visions of Steve Young let loose on the Beau !!) , North Berwick is only a couple of miles away and there plenty of B+B’s , Hotels etc for accomodation and I’m sure I could find somebody to house Moggy’s steed for the weekend !. And there is the bonus of having some nice pubs in North Berwick to parch a dry throat after a hard days work
Or , easier , a day trip to YAM – that way it’s a bit more central for everybody – then we all have a boring driving to do.
Anybody else have any ideas ??

Bull, Braveheart was the worst historical movie ever. Cmon, the battle of Stirling Bridge was fought on a bridge, not on a plain field.

Good call . As a Scotsman – Braveheart is good as a fictional film – fact it ain’t , if you look at the timescale and the characters in the film some of them would have to have been about 150yrs old to meet each other , ie have a serious look at the ages of Robert the Bruce and William Wallace .
Braveheart is a fictional story based on a factual figure from Scots history , made in Ireland with an Aussie as the lead character , with an English production company and US financial backing !!!!.

Pussy seems to get the blame for loads of stuff??:D
