Trig- thank you for that. We do hear and see a lot of aircraft that we assume are on training flights, including chinooks. Last night's sounded bigger than usual though and we could hear it for a long time.

I took a look on Flightradar24’s playback feature Pads and if I’m looking a the right place on the north coast of Somerset then nothing is showing flying low (seems your town is used as a navigational point for flights approaching Bristol) between 10pm and midnight last night.

Probably means they had their transponder off given it was a training exercise. That or they’d been off somewhere being naughty. Next time try flicking your light on and off in the following fashion dot dot dash dot - wait - dash dash dash dot dot dash dot dot dot dash dot then go back to bed knowing you just told em to F off.

Likes his football - can we adopt him for AFCW?
Thanks Trig- that sounds about right. These are alarming times.

Not certain Pads but probably one of the A400Ms out of Brize. They seem to be doing a fair bit of low level training at the moment I’m not too proud to admit that a few weeks back I found myself flinching in bed at night as one came over so low I started to convince myself something had gone wrong.

Big noisy brutes. Must be great fun scooting over England’s sleepy villages in the moonlight.
Trig - what sounded like a very large indeed plane flew low over us going north last night. Just after eleven we reckon. Wondered if you had any ideas.

The wife has decided she wants to watch the England game with me tonight. She hates football and I’m sure is only doing this to try and lean in to something she knows I enjoy. Feel like I’m in an episode of Everybody Loves Raymond.

Always surprises me how short Shilton actually was. But then “big” Pat Jennings was actually shorter than you’d think as well.

Beasant would of saved the penalties that 40 year old Shilton couldn't get near against the Germans in 1990 semi.

6M - indeed re Best and Moore. I used to watch Fulham a lot from about 1972 to 1977, so I saw them with Best, Moore and Rodney Marsh all in the same team just after the Alan Mullery era. Even at the time it was quite something to see these guys on the pitch together, and it seems even more amazing with passing years…

True - Zidane is also one of the best ever players and rightly should be up there. This obsession in recent times on scoring goals as being all there is ends up with someone like Haaland, who isn’t a world class footballer as such, getting more media attention than players like Zidane who was genuinely world class as a player
