Evening Socrates.
Bunny, sounds like we all need a cool drink. At least there is a slight sea breeze here so pretty near perfect - you will have to hop on one of those planes and head this way!

Never been to Scotland jj, is it worth a visit, and is it true that you have whisky streams up there :-)))))

Sea breeze, lucky person you are. I'd love to live sea side but can't until I retire (or win the lottery). What part of sea side are you in, is it real sea or estuary? I lived in Thanet for donkeys yonks but that isn't what I call real sea.

fortunately we aren't on a flight path but we get the ones going into
the RAF base at Northolt and odd ones when they divert them at LHR, but
thats not often due to air space for Northolt.

Ah Northolt, never been there. RAF Uxbridge held sway for a while, lived there and took tube into Earls Court every day for a couple of years. Boring in the extreme. Used to go for days out to noisy airfileds like Brize Norton, Coningsby and Wittering, just to break the monotony you understand. Claiming travel allowances never came into the equation, ever, honest.
Yours faithfully

Bunny, you should come sometime. Festival just starting in Edinburgh at the moment so a bit mad in the City but fine out here.
Opto, whisky streams (actually called burns!!) further north or on west coast islands like Islay. Unfortunately not quite neat whisky, but sort of brown in colour! You might be disappointed :-))
Socs. North Sea 18 miles, Firth of Forth a quarter of a mile, within sight - that good enough? Lived by beach but this is more sheltered. Scottish seaside can be a bit chilly, especially compared to Cheltenham :-)) The Cotswolds are pretty good.

Sounds good to me, what county is that (pardon my ignorance of anything north of RAF Lincolnshire). Any small crofts for sale that a poor ex RAF man could afford?
