I do remember a few of the local acts appearing at the McGregor Club...At the time, I was responsible for the sound equipment for the acts use...good fun !

The last duel fought in Scotland.

Hmmmm bit tenuous this one I think! You mark a spot in RAF Leuchars where you took the photo from and our Lightning XR753 is intercepting the Russian Bear God knows where!!! Any idea which Lightning pilot actually took the photo? However p**s taking aside, it is a superb photo!!! GL

One of the better B + B's we've stayed in anywhere and at a very reasonable price...see-: www newesplanadehotel.co.uk.....ask for Paul or Bob.

Me, on S.E.A.T.O. Tactical Air Excercise... AIR BOON CHOO at UDORN AIRFIELD, THAILAND, MAY 1964...conducted from 20 to 30 April 1964..including 45 Sqn. R.A.F. (S.A.C. Bill Drysdale.... Safety Equipment Section...Parachutes, Dinghies, etc...Provisionally based at RAF Tengah, Singapore, 1963 thru 1965)

QUITE DIFFERENT FROM SINGAPORE'S TBG

Served at Leuchars 1965 to 1969...Safety Equip Sections...'Chutes & Dingies... + Squadron Aircrew's Flying Clothing Sects...Stan Tunnicliffe was Flt.Sgt and Joe Gillan was Sgt....Great time servicing all Squadron's aircrew Safety Equipment & Flying Clothing. My 2 new WRAF recruits, under supervision,packed the 'chute' used in the successful ejection of Flt. Lt. Alan Turley....I packed his Liferaft...perfect ejection and recovery.....Pity he didn't have the courtesy to say 'Thanks' to the girls....Really P....d me off that did !!

(see .. http://www.ejection-history.org.uk/PROJECT/YEAR_Pages/1966jul-sep.htm) ..Quote.. " 24.8.66 RAF Lightning F.3 95188 XP760/K 23 Squadron Leuchars ECU failure. In-flight fire warning. Crashed North Sea 35nm off Seahouses, Fife. Flt Lt Al Turley ejected safely Martin-Baker Mk.4 "

I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THIS IS A PHOTO OF "WINGHAM WELLS FARM". IF SO, I WAS THERE VISITING RELATIONS/FRIENDS OF MY MOTHER...THIS WAS AROUND THE YEAR, 1947/8, WHEN IT WAS AN ORCHARD FARM. THE FAMILY SURNAME WAS CLARK.

STOPPED HERE ON OUR WAY TO GRINDELWALD

Lovely little bay, with a monastery on the hill. Best visited by car.
