I'll sit and watch hours of Scrapheap challenge on a Sunday morning.
In other news... RAF Lossiemouth must be practising night time low flying as twice now I've thought the jet was in the fucking house. It's very unusual they ever come this far.

I wonder if our airspace is being invaded?

Hello Toady, Sean here
We get buzzed by jets on our way to Lancaster in the morning in summer. Usually about 545 by Hellifield, it's very scary.

The first one went on and on and on.
Speak of the devil here it comes again... I can hear it building up.

Is it a helicopter?

No, Jets.
You hear the rumble getting louder and louder then all of a sudden it's a roar going through the house.

I think the first one must have been more than one jet cos it went one forever. I went out of the house to see if I could see it.

Possibly
Two Chinooks came over my house very low this morning. I live nowhere near an RAF base!

I'm 50 miles away from the RAF base as the crow flies.

I'm about 20ish miles
From Manston but I didn't think they had much going on down there other than freight.

Ahhh 'Planit Fanit'
Bits of it are really quite nice these days despite the bed reputation it sometimes gets, Broadstairs and Deal in particular. That said I had to go to Cliftonville a while ago, christ what a dump!

I plan on getting very drunk at folk week in B'stairs this year, as I do every year.

They are such noisy cunts those things

Woke me up with a bit of a shock
They flew over about 6.30 am. Bastards!

I bet they secretly enjoy knowing they fly about waking people up at ungodly hours of the morning!
