Never knew that Mike. That's something new I've learnt for today.

[Mike]

We never stop learning, Scott.

I lived in Edinburgh from '61 to '81 and it was quite well known to have been an ex. airfield, there were loads of them around there and also in Fife.

Thanks Mike... I think Thunder thought I'd made that one up

Oh well... What about East Fortune... I'm sure you have heard of that base

[Thunder]

East Fortune, now I know that one............................but it's wrong

You'll have to think outside the box with this one

[Tiger 1]

Unless it is how a Scotsman or Glaswegian lass would say nice day etc like och! killer weather!

[Thunder]

You're thinking correctly Slogen51,

Ballykelly

[slogen51]

RAF Killadeas ! ?

WW2 base according to a list on Google

[Thunder]

Nope for both.

[slogen51]

RAF Goose Bay ?

Good day after a skin full

[Thunder]

Slogen has it right with Braw-day.

[slogen51]

Thanks

That was a good clue and I will definitely be saying ' it's a braw day' in the future

One more for fun ( I think)

Well Thunder
