My son has just pointed out that about 25 years ago when he was about 7 yrs old we had a family holiday in the Lake District at a place like centre parks and while we were cycling in woods down to the lake two very loud and very low jet fighters (yank I think?) blasted overhead and I grabbed him and pulled him down into the gorse! People thought I was a total fruit loop and gave me a wide berth for rest of the week
I wonder if ex submariners react when they hear that "ping tone" some people have on their mobiles for txts?
Have you not thought of replacing that tatty old medieval roof with a modern one? Plenty of advantages, plus you could join your friends in the 20th/21st Century! Of course, it would probably be best to flatten that old, out-dated structure entirely and replace it with a modern dwelling - double-glazing, central-heating, cavity-wall insulation, water-proof roofing with insulation and hey, go crazy, get yourself an inside loo at the same time.
