Anyone know what the impromptu acrobatic air show over the bay a few minutes ago was in aid of?

I managed to snap a few photos from the balcony before they disappeared;

(I've just put thumbnails here to keep the download time to a minimum. Click the photos to go the flickr page where you can view them full size)

Looks like it was just a coincidence that they were here at the same time as the Belgium royals.

Glad you like them novita. If stealth's right about there being another show tomorrow I'll try and get some better shots from the roof of the apartment. I wasn't quick enough today!

nigel - I've no idea why my blog's still blocked. I've emailed Qtel twice now with no response. There's no nudity on there that I'm aware of! It's one of the tamest and most boring blogs ever! Worst thing on there is a bit about the US report on human trafficking and Qatar being demoted to the tier 3 watch list, but that was covered in the papers here.

Feel free to email Qtel yourself. Maybe they'll respond if more people tell them about it.

Your blog is still blocked by the censor. Any idea why? I haven't noticed any nudity, unless you've hidden it well.

Good guess Britfm, and thanks for clarifying stealth. I only read the Gulf Times online so I didn't see the advert.
