I was out with the dogs around 10.30 Saturday night. Clear sky and full of stars. At one point I counted 9, yes 9, aircraft flying over head.  None military, all civil.

smog:
Just scanned the details as I am about to be late for work but, I was reading a book written by ‘GOD’ aka Jeremy Clarkson and apparently an aeroplane is as fuel efficient as a ford fiesta simply because of the people carried weight to fuel ratio.

For instance an average 5 seated car being driven from London to Glasgow can only carry at the most 5 people for arguments sake lets say it does 30MPG , a plane doing the same run can carry 500 people and it therefore works out less MPG.

I am not really sure of the MPG of huge aeroplanes but pretty sure they don’t do many miles to a gallon.

Either way just thought I would mention it.

My 4, 4x4’s and my 7 seated kid carrier are staying regardless of how much taxation the government pile on me.  They can also take its present campaign against 4x4’s and shove it up their well lubricated posterior, as can the anti 4x4 lobbyists.

Bored of being victimised because of the vehicles I own and drive.
