Its 100 people and I doubt very much they are born and breed locals.

The whole area is very pro armed forces. I there are more than a few auld lanky drinkers in various pubs in the area who have that special look in there eyes. Then local neds keep well clear of them even when they are kicking on 80 for very good reason.

Last time I was in the area the TA were exercising on it at the weekend.

Current activity rates appeared to me to be well down on activity 10-15 years ago. Which I was most disappointed at because I was wanting to show the brats the bombing circuit in action.

If you include the run in areas which they come very low and fast through which is actually more shocking because you usually hear before you see 100 is an extremely small percentage of the people exposed to the range traffic.

Someone will be wanting the land and is stirring up all the tree huggers and other Korn eaters to make some noise in the hope they can get it.
