it was a lump of (loose) concrete that was found on the runway!
Airport open again about 30 mins later , and i think a couple of flts were diverted to Stn.
Then later on in the morning rush , a LH RJ came in on a full emergency declaring smoke in cabin!
Fortunately my day was less incident packed , think i got lucky with my timings....!!!
