Excrement sums up airport attitude to us

Of course Heathrow is a massive culprit when it comes to metaphorically dumping on its neighbours with noise, air pollution etc, but now I read that jets are literally dumping on neighbours in Windsor – keep your hat on, Ma’am!

Last week’s Advertiser reported that ‘a man in Windsor was hit by human waste from an aeroplane while in his garden’.

I don’t know about you, but I had to read that twice.

And what’s more, apparently it ‘wasn’t frozen’.

So do Heathrow jets make a habit of dumping frozen human waste?

Thinking about it though, if I had to choose, I reckon I’d prefer to be hit by frozen waste than by the good old soft variety – wouldn’t you?

Perhaps The Advertiser could run a poll to see what readers think?

And should RBWM be erecting appropriate warning signs in and around Windsor?

Seriously though, what a shocking thing to happen!

I see that the human waste came from a plane based, and I quote ‘from a very long way away’.

That’s the thing with planes, isn’t it? They so often come from a very long way away.

Anyway never mind the plane operators – Heathrow, the neighbour from hell, should be totally liable for this.

My wife suggested a campaign with the slogan ‘Say No To The Turd Runway’ but maybe that’s a little bit tasteless?
