Anyone seen this on the BBC. Choice quote:

"a military spokesman said they were anxious to hear from anyone who may have woken during the morning to find a tank in their garden."

Also the guy resonsible for the tanks name ? Sergeant Major Pratt...

Meanwhile, a 25 foot-high inflatable replica of fast food mascot Ronald McDonald is also still missing after it was whisked by high winds from a Newport restaurant last week.





I wonder!!!

Any chance Ronald McDonald might have borrowed it to pop down the BK drive through

I like the quote of "If anyone's found my tank, please give us a bell" from a Sergeant Major Pratt!!!!

I think any householder who woke up to find a tank in their garden would be anxious to hear from the military.

Funnily enough I was talking to a guy the other day who said he saw one over Bishops Stortford or Bury St Edmunds, or somewhere, and he said he was surprised he saw it because at the time he thought they were invisible.
