If anyone does get in touch with Scotty can you thank him for the knee-board he left in the baggage room at Aldergrove mess.

I am sure he would like to know it went to a bad home!

Dunhovrin:
affirm. The young lady in question was ''reselected'' (pc for chopped) from navigating and now stacks blankets/fluffs duvets (I know not where). Sorry for late response, the detachment machine was giving read only access to pprune for a week (suspicious!) and wouldn't let me reply! Hope this works.

I've heard the rumour a thousand times - but a while ago I spoke to somebody who actually phoned around the secure accommodation establishments and found no trace. So I wonder, does anybody REALLY know if he spent or is spending time at HM pleasure.

P.S. Anybody remember the night he broke a future Jag pilot's nose in the ante-room?

IF the Barlinnie/wherever story has/had any truth about it, (and as they say in North Britain: "I hae ma doots") then surely he'd be "on the out" by now. I certainly first heard the rumour about 6 or 7 years ago, which is not a bad stretch. The original question of this thresd has not yet been anwered: surely someone knows the current location of Weir R. S.

Just thought I'd have one last stab at finding him!

OOps 'stab' was a bad word to use!
