Armed Forces Day

Today is Armed Forces Day in the UK, and we're honoured to have hosted it in Nottingham - its still going on - and I've been listening to the festivities on BBC Radio Nottingham because I'm at work today.

But I was really thrilled this morning when at the junction of Derby Road turning to come into work the Red Arrows and an Electronic Command and Control aircraft went right over me at about 200 feet... was beautiful and put a huge smile on my face.

Funny enough I phoned the wife to tell her, and about 10 minutes later, she had the exact same planes still streaming red white and blue smoke go over our house!... So we both had that thrill.
