Exile, I am aware that the aircraft are considerably higher over CP than they are at Kew, but there is a distinct lack of soundproofing on my caravan. A sparrow taking an early morning stroll across the roof sounds like an emu with clogs on. I was just trying to make the point that the noise is not as bad as is claimed and nowhere near as bad as I had anticipated having heard all the horror stories about the aircraft noise levels in London. Before you ask - I have been to Kew.
