Tornado over Oxfordshire

hey
just wondering, saw a tornado circling around a village in Oxfordshire yesterday, wondered if any one knew what it was doing? allways an awesome sight and sound! If it wasnt doing anything it certainly was doing some good PR!
cheers

Out of interest, there was also a Hawk pair wazzing around between Great Malvern and Oxford/Brize who seemed to take an interest in our white Dauphin helicopter.

Whoever they were, cheers, gave us an interesting transit back!

Actually not a sarcastic answer from me...

The Tornado was an F3 from the 'Fighting Twenty Fifth', and was doing a flypast for a graduation of recruits at RAF Halton
