Any peeps around the Greater Manchester area, has anybody spotted this - a grenade shaped hot air balloon with an England flag under it, made me look twice lol (best picture I could get, had to use the DSLR - I'm about 8 miles East of the city).

Used a DSLR but posted a phone pic of the DSLR screen. What is wrong with you?!

Laziness lol, football imminent so couldn't be bothered downloading.

Was also watching the play off in the Scottish Golf Open.

Didn't have zoom power on phone so was the quickest second option.

Yep went right over our house before landing in the fields.

Was that towards Bolton, watched it drift North West from my perspective before disappearing.
