The crazyest thing happened this morning at the workshop...
... was working inside when I heard a helicopter outside the workshop, was really loud, It was moving allover the place, flying backwards, sideways at 45 degrees alsorts after about 10 mins of this with me watching the whole time it went awayabout 1/2 a mile ish following the main road, then flew back sideways banked at about 45 degrees again. It hovered again asthough it was trying to look inside the workshop, I am still standing outside trying to watch it at this point when a police car turns up!

Turns out that the police helicopter was just flying past and had seen the tracks and gun turret from a huge army tank that the guys in the workshop nextdoor were restoring and they were actually looking inside my workshop to see what was going on and they sent a patrol car to check it out cause they couldnt figure out what the hell was going on!!!

Crazy stuff really....

they'll struggle to knick it the turret it sitting on the floor and weighs about 7 tons and the tracks are on the floor( not atached to the tank) and the engine isnt in it at the moment, its currently all recieving a lovly coad of shiny (well mat finish) new youky green paint! Is kinda a bare shell, and they've been doing it for like 2 years already!
