What's going on?

Yesterday driving home, a huge army lorry passed me on the other side of the road. One of those ones with a big flat platform behind the can, presumably to transport large items on.
Then another one, and another . . 7 in all !

Then this morning, one of those huge helicopters with rotors at both ends went over my house. What are they used for?

Spooky . . what's going on?

Often see this up my way, just means there is an exercise on Otterburn training ranges, these usually involve Aircraft from the UK and Nato as well as Tanks, Artillery and Troops. Certainly think your being invaded when walking in the Cheviots.
