I agree. It's the London City air traffic that is the noisiest.

I'm sure. I'll listen out for it.

It's an app shows you which planes, when and where are overhead. Quite cool when the red arrows are doing a fly past! And to spot random planes a mile up, when you don't hear them and you know the flight is going from Paris to NY !There are websites as well that you can see details of flights overhead. Didn't quite realise quite how many flights use this area as an approach. I thought when City airport was planned most flights were going to approach via the Thames...

I'm up that end too. They fly right past my bedroom and living room windows. Doesn't bother me in the slightest.

    • Another stinker, thank goodness for the international break. Week 3 points...   Week 3 table...  
    • Hospices are coming under increasing pressure at the moment. Not only have their costs been forced up by the increase in employers NI and possibly the minimum wage for some workers, but the recent assisted dying legislation, which forces doctors faced with patients likely to die to offer suicide as a way out means that numbers of hospice doctors will withdraw as they don't ethically hold with the legislation. Additionally we might anticipate a reduction in research on end-of-life care and pain alleviation where the government is supporting an alternative (and one far cheaper than proper end-of-life care). This all brings pressure on the hospice movement as the assisted dying philosophy runs counter to it. It is hardly surprising then that they are looking to gain as much benefit as they can from higher prices.
    • There are plenty of charity shops around, even on Lordship Lane. For SCH one, would be interested to see how much of the donations goes to rent and overheads, rather than the actual intended cause.
