No it's the noise which has created the oversensitivity!

The lack of noise allowed you to sleep in?

Runway resurfacing alters night-time flight patterns

Runway resurfacing is an essential maintenance task that comes round roughly once every decade. Last year we resurfaced the southern runway. During 2014, we'll be resurfacing the northern runway. Because Heathrow is so busy, this work needs to takes place at night.

That will mean changes to the pattern of night-time flights. From 23rd March to 31st October, most aircraft flying after 10.30pm and before 6am will use the southern runway.

Since Heathrow has relatively few night flights, the changes won't affect many aircraft ? mostly arrivals after 4.30am. There will be no additional night flights.

What does this mean for you?

If you live under the flight path for the southern runway, you'll experience more night-time aircraft noise than usual

If you live under the flight path for the northern runway, you'll experience less.

Back to the noise.


Westerly operations today.


But flights must have been further north as the noise sounded 1/3 to 1/2 of last weeks levels, that could be down to wind direction but the wind is very light so probably not.


From 6.30 did noise did become more intrusive but right now 9.00am nothing ?


See flight path below shows many flight are not over ED but over the Thames this morning.

Probably poorly attended because for most people this isn't a big problem.

Looks like I made a lucky guess, eh... Talk about a wolf in sheep's clothing.


Anyhow, I'd appreciate hearing about Tuesday's meeting, please.

Just back home in ED.

Drone central.

watching top gear and the aircraft noise is constant.

drone drone drone.. In the background constant rumble.



99% of people don't want to make a fuss about negative issues.


maybe the ostrich in them stops them from making a fuss.

      BAD ADVICE FROM HOLLAND & BARRETT

      By David Peckham · Posted

      They're a supplement, usually made from whey, which are used after weight training. The theory is that weight training tears the muscle fibres (Feel The Burn, No Pain No Gain, etc), protein helps repair this and aid lean muscle growth. The faster you can get protein into your system, the better, so obviously liquids are absorbed faster than solids Beans, poached egg or peanut butter on toast, are pretty typical post training meals to achieve the same thing. They're much like a very thin milkshake or Slim fast, so nothing anabolic. I used them when I was training three or four times a week and the results were pretty good, if I do say so myself.   Cross-post with Ianr

      On your last point jazzer, no. I've been reading around various aspects of them today.  The majority of them appear to be not much more than whey obtained from milk. That makes them about 75-80% protein. Have  a look at the H&B products.  They list all constituents. On the 18+ issue, OP, I suspect that what you noticed was probably at most a recommendation that they not be used by under-18s.  Even then, I only came across it on one website, by chance, when seeking for evidence of prohibitions:  https://ultimatesupsg.com/blogs/nutrition/whey-protein-should-individuals-under-the-age-of-18-take-whey-protein-to-build-muscle.

      By jazzer · Posted

      Simple question, why is a 16 year old taking protein powders? If they want to build up muscle, try using weights in the gym, doing it naturally.  Presumably  these powers are not natural products and more likely to be synthetic materials?

      Love Dulwich rebranding as Turkish Restaurant

      By Eats Dulwich · Posted

      tbh not impressed. I review restaurants and decided to give them benefit of the doubt that it was an off day and didn't write it up. There's a new restaurant by the Plough which I think is Turkish (where the strange French restaurant was many years ago). Planning to try that soon, if anyone has been let me know what you think./
