Whilst sitting in garden with my coffee, heard a buzzing sound, looked up and a drone was hovering over, like a mini space ship….weird .. it like stared at me for a few seconds then turned and buzzed off, first time I’ve seen one ‘live’. I wondered if this is another way of viewing properties to see if anyone is away.

Just seen on BBC Look East, that Norfolk Police are using drones in a bid to reach remote areas quickly.

Policemen are getting smaller and smaller these days ...

Estate Agents in my area (Wales) have been including aerial photos in the their marketing of houses lately - this would explain it!

Relative did get into trouble, it was a legal firearm of some kind. It caused quite a stir but stopped the drone being allowed to continue with the intrusive flying.

Shooting in a rural area is routine nobody takes any notice, in an urban area the police would on your doorstep very quickly, they take firearms VERY seriously.

Local facebook group a company advertising using their drones to scatter people’s ashes. I’m horrified and have complained but they are still advertising.

Imagine sunbathing in your garden, and some perverted neighbour was doing this to you and others……happened to a relative who shot it down.

Shot it down…. With what ? A very good shot ehhhhhh

I’m thinking of my brother as a teen, with his air rifle….
