Trying to get some kip after a nightshift. An RAF tornado just turned up, and cut the sky in half! He spent about ten minutes doing barrel rolls, loop the loops etc etc Fantastic

The red arrows are flying past my window as I type this but strangely, nine of them make less noise than one of the "mighty fins" on reheat...awesome!!

Sleep? who wants to do that when you've got this to watch?

Pity it's not valentines day or you could tell the wife you made it all happen (referring to second photo)

think you'll find thats an entirely different kind of 'red arrow'. and if its red, you're already in trouble. if not stirrups.

Dawlish, south Devon. It's carnival day! In fact it's been all week. We've had pram races etc etc. Sat watching the box the other night when three blokes wander past wearing stockings and suspenders.....don't see that every day!
The air display has moved on to the coastguard doing an air/sea rescue now.
I'm sat here with my eyes like a newborn puppy, had about an hours sleep, and working tonight !!
