The Goodyear Blimp over Croydon captured on camera by Martin Stitchener @Dxhawk
A giant blimp has been spotted flying over Croydon.
The Goodyear Blimp has returned to the air to spread a message of road safety across the country after a ten year break.
Filled with helium the giant airship can reach heights of 1,500 feet and can take passengers on board.

This is more like a cut & paste from an advertising company.
Spreading a message of road safety? No, selling Tyres. This tyre blimp has been flying over parts of London for months, hardly breaking news.
