I ahve just opened my office door to keep an eye out for them as they come to Dover. The sky is nice and blue waiting for them, due at 3.04 according to local news.....

I have been waiting outside the office and they were late. i popped inside to Google and see if I could find out a updated e.t.a. and heard those Merlins, dashed outside to see them disappearing.... I wanted to get some video and missed it!!! damb....


Came back in to post and heard the Merlins again, another dash outside and there they were again, one doing a victory roll but no video unfortunately...


Oh well, at least I did glimpse them, three in all.....
