Jeremy the helicopter pilot

Not, not a children's book written by a certain (ex) Royal but some lessons learnt from my second ever helicopter ride that I didn't learn from the first one

1. turbulance is a very bad thing
2. dont' ever fly in a helicopter in a thunder and lightning storm
3. Enniskillen whirlybird pilots are much more 'terrified user-friendly' than St Lucian ones
4. when the pilot asks 'do you like rollercoasters?', the answer is always 'no' and should be given without a moments hesitation. In fact, I would clear that point up before I even got into the thing
5. everyone wears the headsets, therefore everyone hears you swear
6. helicopters don't carry boke bags
