davy_fulla Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Anyone been today? I had a couple of hours there with the bairn before. Enjoyed it but a bit too busy for my liking trying to get the pushchair through the crowds. Highlight for me had to be when the red devils were just about to land and the commentator said how they 'love to jump for the big Newcastle....er sorry, Sunderland crowd.' the world famous Sunderland eh?

davy_fulla Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Last year was a laugh when my mate went down and didn't get to see anything for the sea fret. I was sitting in the sunshine in Consett having a few tins when the red arrows flew right over the house. Made me laugh anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crumpy Gunt Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 I hope a fucking harrier jump jet crashes onto the cunts on Roker sea front and kills hundreds. And before you think I'm being a total twat I'd hope the pilot managed to eject safely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haz Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 The reason S'land was selected because there is little civil traffic over it and no military at all. The USAF airdisplays of the 90's were absolutely massive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedro111 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Would love to see the Eurofighter but I'll be damned if I am going to Mackemland to see it. Might just stand on the pier at Tynemouth and have a look! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
