Extract From the Warrington Gazette, 17 Sept
Warplanes Over Warrington:
Reporter: I Penn
Alarm and confusion was caused in Warrington
yesterday when 2 warplanes flew over the town.
Horses bolted and old ladies fainted as all other
sound was drowned out by the noise of these
monsters.
There are reports, although unconfirmed, of
chimney pots being knocked off of a number of
houses in the Corporation Road area.
A local resident Mrs Mabel Higginbottom of
Gasworks Lane, thought it was an attack by
Sadam Husein. However, a near neighbour,
Mr Will E Heckaslike, a retired whippet breeder and
pigeon fancier, stated that she wouldn't know a
Flogger from a Fulcrum if it flew through her window.
A Mr M Gem, a former military man, said that he
thought that they were a couple of Tornados in
the Liverpool circuit.

Two tornados in welded wing with gear down, straight over my garden. Makes a nice change from 737s. Not something we see often up here. Bit of an awayday?
