Dining in.

In the 1950's Prince Philip flew (himself?) into RAF West Raynham.
I suppose on the way to Sandringham.
One of the reception party invited him for a Formal Dinner.
So the Prince turned to his equerry, 'when am I free ?'
he responded 'actually tomorrow evening'. After that everything went into
high gear. Surely someone here can expand or elaborate.

As told to me by my father, who was there.
