Air Ambulance Rockingham Road Pleasure Park, Kettering UK
This Air Ambulance (AA) is taking off from Rockingham Road Pleasure Park, in Kettering UK.
This is the 5th time our park has been used by the AA in a little over 12-months.
I am unaware of any landings there for the preceding 8-years... are we sicker around here now or something?
I was in the first AA (of the five mentioned above) when it took off from the same position one year and one week ago today; the same AA crew ♥ saved my life, bless them ♥, bless the craft and all that fly in her!
I remember nothing about my incident until I awoke in Coventry (Head Injury Specialists) Hospital 8 hours later. But apparently I died several times while in the air and the AA crew jump started me again; luckily for me!
Matilda my 4-year old was the only one with me when I dropped and started doing the washing machine on the ground, the poor girl. Juliette, my wife, it turns out had undiagnosed severe pneumonia at the same time and was raced to hospital (for 5 days) on the same day as my discharge from hospital!
If I was a cat I would only have 5 lives left; 4 survivals against the odds, oh what a joy to be upright and breathing still! ♥☺
What a week that was, not soon to be forgotten...

Northampton is the county town of Northamptonshire in the East Midlands of England. It lies on the River Nene, about 67 miles north-west of London and 50 miles south-east of Birmingham.
Northampton rose to national significance with the establishment of Northampton Castle, which was an occasional royal residence and regularly hosted the Parliament of England. Medieval Northampton had many churches, monasteries and the University of Northampton, which were all enclosed by the town walls. It was granted its first town charter by King Richard I in 1189 and its first mayor was appointed by King John in 1215. The town is also the site of two medieval battles; the Battle of Northampton (1264) and the second in 1460.
Northampton's royal connection languished in the modern period; the town supported Parliament (the Roundheads) in the English Civil War, which culminated in King Charles II ordering the destruction of the town walls and most of the castle. The town also suffered the Great Fire of Northampton (1675) which destroyed most of the town. It was soon rebuilt and grew rapidly with the industrial development of the 18th century. Northampton continued to grow following the creation of the Grand Union Canal and the arrival of the railways in the 19th century, becoming an industrial centre for footwear and leather manufacture.
After the World Wars, Northampton's growth was limited until it was designated as a New Town in 1968, accelerating development in the town. Northampton unsuccessfully applied for unitary status in 1996 and city status in 2000; the town continues to expand with many areas undergoing urban renewal.
