Out today looking for estates & POI , home to George Clooney & his family in stunning surroundings .
Brings back memories…
I was trying to get some photos of Sonning bridge with my Phantom 4 (before current regulations), when this woman appeared from a gate in the wall by the river (the other side to George’s place). “you can’t fly here - George Cluney lives here!”, “I’m going to call the police!” and all the usual paranoid stuff. I wasn’t actually aware that he lived nearby at the time - not that would have made any difference to my photographing the bridge.
Seemed more interested in name-dropping, to be honest. Probably my only hostile confrontation to date. Police never showed, of course, probably because she didn’t call them.
I had confrontation at what sounds like the same house / people by the bridge ?
I was comming home from work one day and we had a megaphone in the van , my work mate pmsl was playing up all day , long story short he was on the megaphone telling the owner / owners your dog can’t s### on the grass !
Bloke came marching up towards the van I was praying the lights went green at the bridge there it was rush hour and they didn’t
The bloke walks up to the van and says to my mate what did you say sorry I can’t hear you , my mate said would you like me to get back on the megaphone it’s one of those ones you had to be there was funny at the time , he played up all day with that armed response armed response everyone get indoors surprised we didn’t get nicked , sorry for the SA sorry it was a different confrontation but Sonning is full of Karen & Ken’s
