Whoops! Sorry Scotland...




An RAF ( Royal Air Force ) fighter jet has accidentally dropped a bomb on Scotland.
The 14kg practice bomb was lost from a Tornado GR4 aircraft during a routine flight from RAF Lossiemouth in Moray.
The RAF do not know if the device survived the fall and have yet to locate the bomb but warned the public against touching it.
Practice bombs are not live devices but are made to look and feel like real bombs.
A spokesman for RAF Lossiemouth said: "Even if the practice bomb survived the fall, we would stress it is highly unlikely to represent a significant danger to the public.
"However, anyone who finds what they believe to be the bomb, which is approximately two and a half feet long and dark blue in colour, is advised to inform the police."
The bomb fell some time during the 90 minute flight, around half of which was over the sea.
The overland part of the journey included a low-level route through Northumberland and north-east Scotland.

Any way you look at it, saying England is the same as Scotland or Ireland is like having someone spit in your face. Watch out mikey742.... I hear mechanixman getting ready to call you out for a fight!

As opposed to picking up the unexploded piece of destructive ordinance, throwing it in the back of the beach wagon, brining it home, and placing it on your mantle as a novel conversation piece...
