170 km north of the Arctic circle....
... taking a walk on the top of a ski resort (not so much of a mountain, more of a "fell"). It was in the summer so there was no snow... or people for that matter.

So there we were, me and the missus were looking out admiring the view when the suggestion came around to "what a fab place for a shag". So off we go, enjoying each other when we heard the familiar "whoosh" of a fighter jet.

Now there was an airport 20km away that was used by the Finnish air force so hearing low flying fighters wasn't out of the ordinary and sure enough one came past really low.... so low infact I could see his head in the cockpit.

So, we finish up (no pun intended) and start to wonder if the pilot saw us in his flypast. Sure enough we could hear the noise of the Hornet returning, but this time it was louder.

After looking for a second we could see 2 of them flying straight for us... the little sod had only gone and radioed his mate and as they flew over we gave them a wave just to *really* check if they could see us. The bastards dipped their wings (as pilots up here tend to do if they notice someone waving) and me and the now embarrassed missus start our slow walk of shame back to our car.

So....there you go, I got busted having outdoor sex by the Finnish Air Force.

Said lady is now also my wife- we lived up in Lapland for just under a year (summer and winter season), we definately wouldn't have been able to have done this in the winter as it dropped to minus 40 some days.

My son is off to Finland next month.
Helsinki, Torku, and Oulo. I think Oulo is up near the Arctic Circle isn't it?

He's only 11, so I hope he's not up to similar tricks...
