I did not think you were permited to fly here, is it permited or not?

What was it that made you think that you couldn’t?

When i Went last week the council warden came over offered me a copy of the drone code and
asked me not to fly into the tower if possible😜 . He was fine and explained Kirklees council don’t have a policy on stoping you flying.Just be mindful of your surroundings and other people …

ok I owe you a lunch Mick if that’s an incentive

Yeh we have the same back in 2018 when post was done i had just done Pfco and had it with me so he was ok with that

You’ve owed me that lunch for 3 years.
Looking forward to it.

When I lived in Almondbury, Castle Hill was always my spot for taking photo’s of any car I might been selling, a great place and less than a mile from my old home

Does that mean you want extra chips and a slice of bread too…
