Tempus fugit … I guess the drama of a ‘low’ FJ has faded from common memory. Thank the Lord there are still some FJs left to frighten the children, the chickens and the emotionally insecure.
Very much agree…I was brought up/went to school in late 60s/early 70s under the centre line a link route (anybody remember those and the smaller LFAs that went with them) between LFA 7 (Wales) and LFA 4 ( Shropshire/Worcestershire)…….on the good days it was a FJ overhead every ten or fifteen minutes….

Youth of today..paah….
