The quiet skies over London town
Mizter T gurgled happily, sounding much like they
were saying:
Rather nice, isn't it! Enjoy it whilst you can.
If you don't like it, don't buy a house under the flight path. It's
that simple.
Yes, I'll cheerfully accept there might still be the odd resident
who hasn't moved since Heathrow opened. 64 years ago. (Did you know
Heathrow had six runways in the late '40s?)
Angry man! Calm down dear.
Not at all angry.
Funny, you sounded like a spluttering self-righteous so and so to me.
Not at all the intent.
If you wish to assign any tone of voice, then "tired of whinging fools"
is probably closest.
Anyhow, large swathes of London are affected by aircraft noise,
including areas quite far away from Heathrow.
Umm, yes, and?
So don't live in London is basically what you're saying? Right.
No, not at all.
Just don't moan about the things which are inherently London, and were
predictably so when you moved there. It's like buying a house looking
onto say the A1/A406 junction, then complaining about there being lots
of traffic noise. Or buying a house next to a village church then whinging
about the bell-ringing. Or buying a house on the lane between a dairy
farm's yard and grazing then whinging about cow**** on the road.
All of which people do. Regularly. It's certainly not a London thing.
Anyway, I can't quite connect your outburst to the two sentences of
observation in my original post.
Simple.
Only a fool would buy a house under the flightpath to one of Europe's
busiest airports then complain about aircraft noise. "Enjoy it whilst you
can" certainly sounds like a complaint to me.
