    Default S6632 M O S Eastriggs visit?

    I spoke to the MOD security guy today about a visit to Eastriggs and he said to write in. If possible I'll arrange for a small group visit, if anyone else is interested. We would need to be security-cleared. This was the case with the Porton Down visit a few years ago, and probably also RAF Alconbury.

    Quite an interesting site - it has its own narrow-gauge railway hence is apparently sometimes visited by other anorakists. Fingers crossed, it might just work .... PM me if you'd like to go on the Hopefuls list.

    Talking Eastriggs visit is ON

    A visit to this "MOD Trig" in southern Scotland can indeed be arranged . It would have to be a weekday. I have pencilled in Fri 31 Oct / Fri 28 Nov.

    We will be accompanied by the site manager hence no prior security clearance is required, just a valid passport or drivers licence.

    Anyone interested, let me know and I'll confirm a date and time. If unable to make those particular dates, let me know anyway.

    I was beginning to think that you were prevented from telling us the outcome under the Official Secrets Act hmy: Sorry to hear that the plans were thwarted.

    Thanks Ted. One of the ladies in the party tried to sweet-talk an Eastriggs employee she met in the pub, but even that didn't work
