    So the US has produced a fighter that no manufacturer knows anything about but we have Pres. Trump praising it. It's the F-52 from COD.

    Need to lead better life. Just backed up all my photos and saw I've taken 70.000!

    It's not a bad life travelling around the country taking photos. I can think of worse things to do! No aviation pickies to share with us today?

    Got 1st camera in 2007 and barely used it. Then 2010 got fed up being in all weekend and started going round local places. 2013 was the 'go round the country' moment. Seen some awesome places... ironically, not many aircraft ones but should be able to get some airshow shots uploaded

    All cultured out after 4 days in Amsterdam. Must have spent all of €10 on admissions as had the €87 iamsterdam card meaning free visits.

    Initialsing the trip to Amsterdam in January. Or rather my brother is, trading a 7am flight for a lunchtime one for £25 more.

    Decided to have a 1 trip this holiday. Alas, it was more of a slip on a rug in my flat. Got friction burn on arm the coffee table I glanced

    so I remembered today that I'm on holiday next week. Swift trip to work done to get boxed off the stuff that was outstanding.

    Last 2 years, I've explored the UK but my brother's doing the world instead. Today he's off to Jordan.

    Isn't it dangerous there? Still, I admire him.

    It's one of the relatively few safe places in the Middle East and he's with a tour group that's had years of experience over there. Flight was 90 mins late leaving but arrived only 30 mins late.

    A very cheap dayout at Nostell Priory today.. £4.90 Arriva daysaver in Leeds and just £2 return travel to Leeds on Cityzap.

    Today's the 40th anniversary of my 1st visit to MAN. Got false expectations of how busy it was as it was packed with diversions.

    So.. using my brother's patented "Streetview" test on determining trips, no longer off to Berlin in January but to Amsterdam instead

    Tale of the daytrip tape. 860+ miles on bus/train and 63 miles walked. On a scale of 1 to 10 on how tired I am, I think I'd say 13 or 14.

    A man after my own heart. I walk most days and do a 10-15 mile walk at least once a week, often more than once. I walk a minimum of four marathons every month of the year (spread over the month that is not a marathon in one go).

    I should have said a minimum of the equivalent of four marathons a month.

    I'm very impressed by that! The shortest walks were 2 lots of 5 miles which was Friday and Sunday, with London being on the Saturday. No point in exhausting myself before the big trip or the day before getting back to work.

    Not going to be put off my London trip tomorrow

    All fine. nothing noticeable extra security wise in the city centre apart from fencing down some of the roads down to the main tourist destinations. Got back home at around midnight

    3rd 4.45am departure from my flat for a daytrip. Not quite grasped the idea of having a relaxing week off.
    David_itl
    Day 1 of holiday. So... on a train at 6am to go to Blenheim Palace. Up 2 hours earlier than usual... asking myself why!
    David_itl
    Nearly prepped up for daytrip mode next week, with 1st trip to Scotland in the offing. Must find the Kerr tartan should I go

    Love my phone deciding to freeze, reboot and freeze in the reboot. 3rd straight day of waiting for the battery to drain to charge it back up

    going to have another photo feature on National Trust social media channels. Time to give up the day job and go professional?
