Some holiday! Get the washing machine on!!
rubschin:

I'd have to admit I know how to work it if I did that.  And that would never do.

FWIW we're glad we've seen Guernsey but we'd have been kicking our heels a bit if we'd had the full 3 nights there.  Lovely people, pleasant sights and great food and hotel but at the end of the day it's only 25 sq miles with little reason to exist anymore apart from tourism and tax free finance houses.

Well, whatever, nevermind

This week there has been loads of military planes and helicopters flying about …British ones … rubschin:  are “we” about to invade somewhere ..?..?

Not up to date on who the latest threat ..? …

Two Hercules just rumbled over now …
Awesome plane for its time the Herc but I think you'll find they were the much bigger A400s.  We haven't got any Hercs anymore.

And what BM said with that  whistle:, Humanitarian purposes my arse.  Restocking with missiles for taking out Iranian drones far more likely.

A400s fly into RAF Akrotiri...

Apey is much more likely to have seen the Hercs flying in and out of Pafos - I think they are RCAF... Also a regular procession of C-17 Globemasters on finals over our village into Pafos....
:thumbsup:

IIRC the Yanks still fly them too.







A picture taken in Pafos of one of our current visitors... Unfortunately, I haven't seen any in Pissouri...  evil:

Cor! Saw an Osprey on finals into Pafos International at lunchtime...  cloud9:


Over my house this evening...  cloud9:




















The Marines are here big time!








Cor!  cloud9:








This bad boy just lumbered over the house - unfortunately I only had my phone to hand...

No, looked like an AV8B but when I zoom in the engine and undercarriage configuration says WAY different.  It looks like a C-17 front on a 777 back - weird
