THIS is about the helicopters flying over from Yeovilton to Merryfield.

I live in Stocklinch, and we have had to put up with them for months, every Wednesday for two hours.

Then they went on this tour around the south west and they didn’t visit us. It is an insult really.

They have been flying over for months, and all the time they have been using the field. They used to fly every Wednesday over the rooftops, but when they went on the tour they never came near.

It is so strange that they went all over the West Country and they didn’t come here.
