Oh that's so funny but not for you I bet! Maybe that's a subject for a run of posts, (funny) "mortifying moments". Not that I would mention any of mine as they are still mortifying to me.I do remember being covered in a bubbly swimming costume @Ryhia another home made failure by my mother...she had used shirring elastic on one of her white nylon blouses...to make a swimming costume for me...and don’t even go there...white nylon and water do not go together...
Hello @gennepher . Careful, your monitoring of police and RAF aircraft movements may get you an unexpected visit to a building with a blue light outside!And @jjraak these are the same two previous helicopters a few moments.
One appears to be going somewhere specific, and is at a much higher altitude.

Might keep you occupied awhile...
Me going back to that app. ..
Something new to learn every day @OldButBold
Yep! I'm obviously on a childhood reminiscent trip this afternoon.
That has bought back so many memories. Horrible itchy home made knitted wool vests. Yuk.I buried mine in my dad’s vegetable garden @HarryBeau and @Krystyna23040
along with all the home made knitted wool vests my mother hand knitted me. It was like being covered in a nettle vest...
They didn’t find them until my father dug over the vegetable garden in Autumn... then I got into trouble...
Best place @HarryBeauGreat idea gennepher but we only had a balcony when I was young...so I shoved it in the cupboard under the stairs where we stored the coal
Very mortifying, so much so still a vivid memory well more than half a century later @RyhiaOh that's so funny but not for you I bet! Maybe that's a subject for a run of posts, (funny) "mortifying moments". Not that I would mention any of mine as they are still mortifying to me.
The giveaway is the lozenge flight path at Shawbury, it forms a timed circuit that you have to do without visuals. So knowing the wind speed plus wind direction you work out how that will affect your airspeed and fly that pattern as close as possible. That pilot made a nice job of it
EDIT
Found the training diagram, same as your flightpath

@gennepher and @HarryBeau my mother was horrified when she saw the wool swimming costume malfunction and she never made me wear it again.
The itchy home made knitted wool vests I had to hide. Luckily she never found them.
What I make of it is a fantastic piece of art graciously shared by a talented, patient and determined lady. I have no idea what you will make of that.Okay.
Painting for today.
There is a watercolour app called Auryn Ink.
So I was trying that out, but it was very frustrating because it was a whole new skill set to learn...so it got deleted and I went back to the SketchClubApp...
The SketchClubApp has the feeling of painting in acrylics. Which I very much like. It is more satisfying.
I have no idea what you will make of this.
I don't know what I make of it either...it has taken more than a couple of hours.

Personally I think they should bring back liberty bodices, some even had suspenders to keep your knitted stockings up. Very a la mode. Not!How many of us hid/buried/got rid of those itchy wool vests?
I still cannot wear wool next to my skin now....
Your mother sounds a lot like mine was. Luckily, when she saw what happened when I came out of the water she didn't make me wear it again. She normally wouldn't take any notice of me refusing to wear something.Did she make you wear it even when she found out it stretched - my mother would have done - you didn't get away with anything with her.

Glad to see your humour is not self isolating and you are razor sharp. Good man.Dear god woman, I'm coming over all unnecessary! **** hot in here
They are lovely puppies. Thank you for posting this picture.Some may find this cute others not. I did ask permission from their parents but they were both too dog tired to care. (dadjokes2u.co.uk - always a winner.)

I am the same - it completely put me off wool next to my skin. I also hated wearing a liberty bodice - really uncomfortable.How many of us hid/buried/got rid of those itchy wool vests?
