Thursday PM and Friday AM, is when it's going to grind to the halt.

I can see the border crossing shutting, if it goes the way I think it will

Thanks for the info EVH

A few V22's Ospreys over Cardiff today what a rumble

Damn my Nikon battery was flat

Nice

yeah I seen some signs on the motorway today that they are doing some practise in the air, not seen anything round here at the moment (Cardiff St Mellons)

Been a V22 and some Merlins flying over Crosskeys.

The Osprey makes a hell of a noise.

They were coming straight over thornhill then towards the millennium stadium ...wow! I thought it was thunder

Lovely sound btw

I think the fencing is to stop Obama leaving the luxury of the Celtic manor and seeing the real side of Newport

Can't have him getting upset. He might think about having a rescue operation.

Nice video there. I love the Osprey although I every time I see one I am sorely disappointed when Optimus Prime doesn't appear afterwards.

Didnt take it myself was just on youtube, was having a look as I have not spotted anything today

Nice vid

Apparently newport want to make big impression to nato visitors by looting all the limos

I keep hearing those ospreys :eek:

I'm going to try and make it for Friday at Cardiff bay with my trusty NikonD90 and tripod

For the first time in history newport suddenly becomes an important landmark

BubbySoup · 1 Sep 2014 at 21:59

They were flying over the Llanishen area today, around 4pm. Either 2 of them or 1 that came back, can't be sure as I went into a bank in between.

Second time, first was the ryder cup

And Terry Matthews is raking it in.

Ah well, at least they'll still have him when Debenhams goes belly up.

We've been important plenty of times, mostly before being usurped by that horrible place 12 miles away.

Dreading the commute to work Thursday and Friday

working smack bang in the centre Cardiff is not going to be fun!

DJMK4 · 2 Sep 2014 at 14:48
