Does anyone think we'll ever see any of Mildenhall' s Ospreys visiting Scotland?

When you consider how many times the 21st SOS MH-53s visited Scotland over the years I won't be surprised when the Ospreys finally pitch up, ............in daylight that is and where people can actually see them.

And unless someone has moved Vliehors, that's further than Donna Nook.

Pretty sure they''ve been quite a lot further east than that now, too?

Didn't a couple come back from Germany a couple of weeks ago, Chris?

Anyway, they must have a very short range - after all, Lajes is just off the South coast. :lol:

Shouldn't that have been spelt "C-u-r"?? :lol:

Talking of inane gurning from North of the border, how's your microwave oven and glass kettle, then?? :P Very useful items in a caravan when on a spotting trip, though. :lol: :lol:

There's always a possibility - it's the probability that's a bit remote :whistle:
