Yep that's it Tink, just to cover all angles....

18 hours apart, that might be taking the biscuit a bit!! LOL

God my mum bless her heart, said she was walking down in a big hill just outside of town, looked up and saw the top of two great big cranes over the rooftops, but because of the angle and the sun shining off them, she said they looked like two fighter jets flying really low with smoke coming out of them (???? ) but she yelled a bit and ducked and then spent the next 10 minutes in fits of gigles/shaking like a leaf with my sister LOL She is such a plonker LMAO

PMSL!!! Bless her.

When we were on honeymoon in Scotland we were walking through Glen Coe and this fighter jet came through really really low down and I was terrified. It was so low down it was below the people walking on the mountain.

NatalieJane · 28/04/2008 10:02

DH does a lot of work up in the lakes, and he has been driving on a road that basically wraps around the mountain. The RAF have training jets around there because of the terrain, and he had a jet come up along side him (obviously DH driving, jet flying) the pilot waved to him and then went full pelt and dissapeared. DH said he didn't know whether to feel proud that he had an actual fighter pilot wave at him, or to be cut down by the fact that the fighter pilot left him for dust LOL

We have taken the kids up a few times to see if we could catch a training session, but sod's law they are never about when we go!

kayzisexpecting · 28/04/2008 10:05

They do a lot of training over the moors here. So we see them all the time. Some people moan that they are too loud.

NatalieJane · 28/04/2008 10:07

Spolisports, can waste many a day watching them, the noise is part of the fun

Mind you, I think me and DH are the only people in the world who would love to live at the end of a runway.... plane spotting anyone?? LOL (It that as bad as train spotting?!!)

kayzisexpecting · 28/04/2008 10:12

ME TOO!!! Oh I would give anything to live near a runway. The hotel in London was in the flightpath of planes landing and taking off at Heathrow and I loved it so much.

NatalieJane · 28/04/2008 10:21

We get quite a few low planes coming over for Manchester, low enough to read what company they are from easily, but they only come over this way every now and then. Not sure why, some days we have only a couple, other days we have 20, it must depend on which runway approach they use. Can get a bit hairy though, because we are quite high up, and the planes are relativly low by the time the are flying past here, we have seen at least two very very very near misses, one of them, the pilot from one of the planes must have seen the other plane coming because he banked round so quickly, how the wing didn't clip the tail of the other still surprises me to this day!

I have to say as well, when we're on holiday we try and find a decent hotel that is as close to the airport as poss so we see all the planes coming and going
I think the best one was Tenerife, we weren't very close (as in miles on the road) but the end of the runway was just around a bit a cove from where we were, so the planes take off over the sea (you are a bit fucked if the pilot runs out of runway! ) It was fantastic.

Corfu was quite good as well, we didn't see them landing/taking off but they flew very low over our hotel, you could feel the wind off them

I am such a saddo LOL

kayzisexpecting · 28/04/2008 10:27

My mum thinks I am a saddo, I think I get my love of planes from my Dad as he is a huge plane fan.

We must be in a flightpath though they are very very high up. We have planes going past all day. I could honestly spend a whole day at an airport watching planes landing and taking off.

We have been looking at holidays for next year and I have been looking at hotels near the airport as they are also slightly cheaper but DH thinks it will be too noisy. Plus we probably wont be going on holiday now we'll have a 6 month old as well as DS.

NatalieJane · 28/04/2008 10:39

We went to Menorca last year, DS2 was only 8 months, TBH, I wouldn't go again with such a young one, I know people do it, but we didn't feel like we'd had a 'holiday' at all, even though it was with First Choice and everything was geared towards the kids. DS1 loved it though.

Have got Nickleback's album on, 'tis v. good

kayzisexpecting · 28/04/2008 10:42

Thats what we think. We'd just be doing the same just somewhere else.

I bought the Nickleback album the other day. I think it is great.

NatalieJane · 28/04/2008 10:45

I love that song they have out I WANNA BE A ROCK STARRRR

kayzisexpecting · 28/04/2008 10:47

Have you seen the video?

NatalieJane · 28/04/2008 10:49

I caught the very end of it yesterday.

Anyone for a bag of crisps? I got the munchies....

kayzisexpecting · 28/04/2008 10:52

I love the video, it's great.

I have just had a bag of doritos with some dip. It was gorgeous.

excitedtinkerbell · 28/04/2008 11:26

i love that song too video is greati want to get nickleback album have seen it on amazon for £6

NatalieJane · 28/04/2008 11:32

DH downloads all of ours, I can't remember the last time I bought a CD or DVD!

Only problem is, there are piles and piles of CD's and DVD's all over the place, he is good at downloading them, storing them is a different matter!

We were watching one of the music channels yesterday (think it was Box?) anyway they had a load of Eminems stuff on, I have to say I do love that bloke, I know he isn't to everyone's taste, but I do like it. Some of the videos are utterly hilarious!

NatalieJane · 28/04/2008 11:34

This is one of the funniest video's I have ever seen, can just not imagine any other super cool 'big man' group dressing up in those outfits LOLOLOLOL

excitedtinkerbell · 28/04/2008 11:49

you are right nj and a great song 2

NatalieJane · 28/04/2008 11:54

It does make me giggle, saw it yesterday for the first time in years, have seen it about 5 times now on youtube, and still it makes me giggle

kayzisexpecting · 28/04/2008 12:23

I haven't seen that it ages. It is quite funny. I normally cant stand Eminem but some stuff he has done is really good.

Nat this is the Nickleback video.

I love this song and video by Eminem. Its is so funny.

NatalieJane · 28/04/2008 12:37

I had seen the video for Nickleback's one, remembered as I watching it! It is a great song

And I just love Eminem, all of them, well most of them....

kayzisexpecting · 28/04/2008 12:40

I love flicking through the music channels. Its what I am doing right now. That and looking at the news to see if those idiots who killed Sophie Lancaster get life. Which I bloody doubt.

Part of my Dh's birthday present was a bj once a week! I gave him a little voucher lol. I've never been a great fan of giving them before, but he likes it so I have done. He's like putty afterwards, a rather vulnerable state of mind I find
And do you know, I'm rather good at them now
