@dide I could not agree more Dianne particularly in these current times, seems they are much more respected and recognised for the brilliant work they are doing during this pandemic:)

@fishers Thank you Ian for your comment they deserve all the praise we can give them, it overflew our house, I was up the hill near it was not as close as it looks :)

@gilbertwood Many thanks Denise needed my 600mm lens for this shot, I knew its timetable not its exact route so was all setup ready:)

@louannwarren Thank you Lou Ann, I was born after the NHS was founded, the staff are wonderful people and do a brilliant job, they have put me back together a few times over the years and it never cost me a penny, healthcare is all for free in the UK:)

@ludwigsdiana Thank you Diana for your comment and Fav, I guessed its flight path but was standing on the wrong hill so it was a little further away than expected:)
