O/T Low flying jets

O/T Low flying jets

Postby Christies Child » Thu Aug 06, 2009 8:25 am

Those of us living in the South Lakes are used to low flying military jets passing overhead. Recently there has been an increase in activity and from past experience (ie Bosnia and Iraq) it tends to be the prelude to some overseas campaign that becomes headline news in around 3 to 4 weeks time.

With the comflict in Afghan appearing to be at a stalemate, maybe the low flying is training for an increase in activity over the coming weeks / months?

Blackpool has a wealth of oil in its chip shop back yards and is an openly heathen hotbed of sin, maybe the airforce is planning to liberate blackpool, the provocative show from the red arrows could provoke a response from the BHM (blackpool heathen militia) thus enabling us to tap into their stale lard mountain giving us a wealth of fuel :twisted: :twisted:
