As they mend them just up the road they regularly fly over on tests.I love the rumble of a chinook flying overheadI was fairly close to RAF Odiham and the chinooks were regularly flying over our camp, those were the days
Mr SummerChild was posted there for a couple of years back in the 90s. We lived in married quarters near the Gurkha camp.I love the rumble of a chinook flying overhead
As you can see by my profile photo I'm one of those pony mad girls who never grew out of it!The only time I've been on a horse was 50 years ago and I was being trained by a seven year old on a very small horse. I was a complete scaredicat, glad when it was all over.
Maybe, if I had had a pony as a child I wouldn't still be horse crazy as an adult
(I have 2 but if I could afford it I'd have 50 
)Is a bit like that around here with Spitfires, they do many experience flights at £££££’s and I must admit that I’m getting a bit blasé over the sound of a Merlin.They (and Blackhawks) fly over my house pretty much every day Mon -Fri. I’m glad you like them, but I’m kind of over it. One day I may just flash them my 58 year old boobies!!
I'm a licensed minister in the C of E. I regard swearing as a Gift of the Holy Spirit.Oh! I’m Australian, swearing is our love language
Or as Mr Mice would say "Speaking in Tongues again, pet?"
The full balcony pic, most have cropped off the right hand side
the Gurkhas have a special place in my heart. They taught me to March and played me on and saw me off the square when I qualified. I love them x

I’m wracking up more than I should - there’s a rescue called brown bread and it tugs my heart too much!As you can see by my profile photo I'm one of those pony mad girls who never grew out of it!

Funnily enough I now have spitfires flying over on the regular!
And also, they weren't invited.Sure Jan
HaroldAgreed.
Protecting her from what exactly
Just been watching TTC highlights on BBC2, the Lancaster bomber was briefly shown and I’ve come over all emotional, which is really not like me at all.
It brought back happy memories, tinged with a little guilt, of my dad, who was a wireless operator on Lancasters in the war. He and his crew did fly other planes, but the Lancaster held a special place in his heart.
As a family we used to go to a lot of air displays back in the 60’s and 70’s, particularly Church Fenton and Finningley which were the closest to us. Walking round various airfields looking at the static displays in the hangers, (there were intervals between planes flying overhead), dad would get chatting to the serving airmen about his time flying Lancasters and other bombers in the war. Being very young I used to get terribly bored and VERY embarrassed, as we’d be surrounded by airmen firing questions at him and wanting to chat endlessly. This happened at every single event we went to, and it got to the point where I refused to go to any more air displays, and so I’d stay at home with my grandparents. I know dad’s feelings were hurt by this, but in my defence I was 7 or 8 at the time when I made the selfish decision not to take part in these outings that gave dad so much pleasure.
Today, watching the Lancaster taking part in the fly-past, I feel dreadful about spoiling his little moments in the spotlight, and wish I could go back in time and change my attitude.
To keep on topic, I do hope Harry and Meghan are, at some point in the future, eaten up with guilt at the despicable way they’ve very publicly treated members of their families. Can’t see it ever happening to be honest as they are so self absorbed, selfish and utterly oblivious to anyone’s feelings except their own.

I usually enjoy reading what Lady C has to offer, but she's gone too far in her saying that Catherine may have stolen stuff for the Middletons. I'm not very happy with this allegation which has gone too far. Gawd knows where the thought even came from.
I was on a horse a few years ago on a trek.
Another horse, which was apparently my horse's boyfriend, attempted to demonstrate the depth of his undying love without regard to the fact that I was on her back. It took two people to dampen his ardour and drag him away.
Being the filling in a sexy-horse sammich is bliddy terrifying!
First and last time I've got onna horse.
They are NOT fun to fly in, that’s for sure! It’s like being on a carnival ride that makes you want to hurl!! Blackhawks on the other hand are AMAZING!!!
No. She didFendi calfskin bag? Chanel leather flats? Wasn't she supposed to be a vegetarian? (Or did I make that up?)
Harry wasn’t a Colonel of one of the regiments involved in the parade so would have never been eligible to ride in the procession
Camilla and Catherine could both ride now if they wished (Duke of Kent too)
$21 TRILLION dollars missing, but most likely sunk into secret space programs. Let THAT sink in! Again. Watch this! (Sorry to post on my own post!)
